If you searche the net you will find big number of sites explaining more in detail the diference.
In general the basic language is not the same in .net as in 6. There are a lot of big changes in structure and the code for 6 needs to be converted to .net and can not be converted back.
For a small program the conversion shold work but for larger applications it probably would involve some redoing of code as well.
Also the vb runtime dll's from old days is replaced with the .net framework. The framework needs to be installed on the computer just as the dll's used to but is about 23MB of install files. For a larger application this might not be a problem and you might benefit from the .net improvements but for smaller simple programs my opinion is that this is not an option...
VB VS VB.NET
1- VB.Net is fully object oriented while VB is partially object oriented. VB supports only classes not inheritance.
2- No DLL registration problem in VB.Net(Assemblys or managed code)
3- Common language Runtime(CLR) and Intermediate Language(IL) support is there in .Net so that you can use both the code of VB.Net and C# etc in one application, while VB can have only one compiler and run time.
4- More impovement in Efficiency and UI in .Net
