Syntax translation would be rather easy but the libraries used by real 
programs are very difficult to map to FCL / LCL .
On a positive side, converting Visual Basic programs is still more realistic 
than C++ or even Java.
C++ has complex syntax. Java has clean syntax but the huge amount of libraries 
makes it (almost) impossible to convert.

Even Delphi conversion is quite a challenge sometimes.

If you want to study about Lazarus replacements for VB classes and functions, 
please write them down somewhere. They maybe can be used later.
