    Trust me asp.net is the only website you need. You can also download couple ebooks to work with. I suggest you try any of the Microsoft step-by-step series. you can't go wrong there.

Believe me, I did QBasic back in the day. It was hellish converting to C#, but I finally did it. Still have some relapses now and then. I think the best you can do is determine your area of interest. If you wanna program MS Office and some other Microsoft products, learn VB. If you want a much wider area, Linux stuff, etc, learn C++, then C#.
    Ok, Anubis, if you want to limit yourself to C# thats ur business. If you want a language that can go beyond web develepment and desktop application development and is the easiest to learn, then go VB.NET. It's a no brainer.

    I am a fan of C# and I use it sometimes. I do C, C++ and Java also, but choosing C# may turn u off from the whole thing after you begin. Trust me. QBasic is like how Adam is to man, a far ancestor. VB.NET and C# are closer than ever. You even have convertors on the net that can translate from one language to another, so you can even try learning both as you go along.

    In what way is VB.NET functionally superior to C#? It's only easier to learn if you're coming from a VB background. It's really up to the individual and if there was a no brainer it'd be choosing C#.

    I've got a visual basic book which is what got me started in the fiend in the 90's. Could sell you for 500 if you want. I plan to post some of my old programming books for sale.. just time to do it..

    Thanks Knight finding reading material is not an issue for me actually I'm trying to get as much video tutorials as I can but if that falls through then reading material would be the next option

    I did not say VB.NET was functionally superior, afterall they both compile to MSIL. Anyways, I was just saying that VB.NET is easier to learn than C#, whether you have a VB background or not. That is a fact that cannot be argued against. Also, in Jamaica I have never come across a business that use C# - not to say there arent businesses in Ja who dont use it. It simply means that VB has good adoption in Jamaica versus C#.

    Videos alone will not do youth. The videos should be used in conjunction with reading material. Otherwise, the videos will confuse you rather than help you.

    Good tutorial link. Looking through it though and I don't like the fact that they tie in the code with the HTML. I promote code abstarction and so always keep my code in a seperate .vb file. The only time I mix code and HTML is when I use repeaters.

    Hey, I am warning you, you are fooling yourself if you think you can learn from videos alone.
