To expand on IJZ's third point, auto-implemented properties do not exist in pre-4.0 VB. They do exist in 3.0+ C#, however.

.NET Programming

C# is an object-oriented programming language created in conjunction with Microsoft’s .NET framework. Compilation is usually done into the Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL), which is then JIT-compiled to native code (and cached) during execution in the Common Language Runtime (CLR).
