i created the basic form, but when I try to cut and paste the converted C# code I get no change.
here is the code. i think the convertor did not convert it

using Microsoft.VisualBasic;
using System;
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Data;
using System.Diagnostics;
[Microsoft.VisualBasic.CompilerServices.DesignerGenerated()]
partial class Form1 : System.Windows.Forms.Form
{

	//Form overrides dispose to clean up the component list.
	[System.Diagnostics.DebuggerNonUserCode()]
	protected override void Dispose(bool disposing)
	{
		try {
			if (disposing && components != null) {
				components.Dispose();
			}
		} finally {
			base.Dispose(disposing);
		}
	}

	//Required by the Windows Form Designer

	private System.ComponentModel.IContainer components;
	//NOTE: The following procedure is required by the Windows Form Designer
	//It can be modified using the Windows Form Designer.  
	//Do not modify it using the code editor.
	[System.Diagnostics.DebuggerStepThrough()]
	private void InitializeComponent()

What do you mean, "I get no change"? Your question doesn't make sense. Clearly tell us what you want vs. what you're getting.

after i open visual studio where do paste the converted code?

[Curtis Rutland]

I would strongly suggest against using a converter. For one, you have no idea what the output means, since you didn't write it yourself, which will make it hard to debug problems. And 2, I don't trust them to be perfect.

Here's a cheat sheet on converting between C# and VB.NET:
