[V8i] VBA to .NET addin or standalone

$

Hi all,

I have a completed VBA project which I would like to now reproduce it outside of VBA. From what I understand the simplest of my options are to use either VB.Net or C#; I have some experience with the former but not with the latter however this might be a good opportunity to learn C# but I am undecided at the moment. I recall reading that anything written in either of these languages won't give any increase in performance as like VBA, they still use COM and I am absolutely fine with that as the performance of my existing VBA project is perfectly acceptable.

I'm not sure what steps I now need to take and I have some questions:

  1. Addin vs Standalone? I think these are the 2 options I've read which I can aim to create, are there any pro's or con's to either? Can a standalone app interact with an active DGN just like an addin can?
  2. Visual Studio Version? Do I have to create an application with a specific version of Visual Studio (I currently have Visual Studio Community 2015 installed) ?

Any advice would be appreciated
