[!INCLUDEmsCoName] Visual Basic .NET in one of the managed programming languages that is supported by the common runtime library in [!INCLUDEvbprvb] .NET. Many of the samples in this documentation are written in [!INCLUDEvbprvb] .NET. You can use [!INCLUDEvsprvslong] and [!INCLUDEvsOrcas] to develop SMO applications.
After you have started the [!INCLUDEvsprvs] project, you must add references to the [!INCLUDEssNoVersion] Management Objects (SMO) assemblies. Then, import the required namespaces so that your program can recognize the SMO types.
In [!INCLUDEssCurrent], the SMO assemblies are located in the [!INCLUDEssSampPathSDK] folder.
