  15 '''''' The intention of this document is to describe a set of standards and guidelines that are to be used for new development projects using Microsoft VB.NET. These represent a combination of general best practice coding styles and the conventions used by Microsoft. The goal of the standard is to make development and support of VB.NET systems simpler and more consistent across projects. The standard is not complete in the sense that all standards documents should evolve with experience and changes in the technology. It is not anticipated that these guidelines will be retrospectively applied to existing systems. It is the responsibility of developers to understand, be familiar with and follow these standards. Any of the standards may be challenged at any time, but until such challenges have been made and resolved, developers should conform to the current standards. The process for challenging the standard or requesting new standards will be documented on the WebSig. The standards contained in this document are based on, and should shadow any changes to, document MSD_DOCS_116811_2 (Coding Standards for .NET using C#).
