Yes, the DotNet framework is the basis behind all of the new .net languages - vb.net, c#.net, J#.net etc. The latest version of the framework is 2.0, which comes with VS 2005. The framework is actually free, and can be downloaded at any time. The framework contains the actual "compilers" for the languages, and programs for the 2.0 frmaework can be written in notepad if you have the gonads. VS is just a (VERY) pretty wrapper around the process of writing code for .Net. John W.
