You probably mean automagic? AFAIKT no. But of course you can re-implement it C#. (although that probably is a poor idea)

1) Migration from VB6 is messy at best

2) You could migrate from VB6 to VB.NET, and then convert the code from VB.NET to C#

3) If you decide down that path, be prepared for a lot of work

4) I would favor reworking with the way C# is optimized

Use the VB Upgrade wizard (http://visualbasic.about.com/od/imhoinmyhumbleopinion/l/aa120102a.htm) and then use one of the tools described above to convert the vb.net code to c#.
