[AccessD] How to start .Netting

Hello Andy,

I started learning .Net last year and downloaded a copy of Visual Studio
Express Edition 2005 (I believe there is now a 2008 release) for free
from Microsoft.  Just google it and follow the link.

I started with VB.Net and ADO.Net as I needed to connect m applications
to SQL Server DB's (also an express edition of this free) and Microsoft
Access DB's.

I am now a confused.Net developer.  I acquired some VB and ADO Net books
o eBay and started there then started downloading free video training
from LearnVisualStudio.Net website.

I will now be learning .Net for the rest of my life as there is so much.

Hope this helps...

Simon

Ok I'm sorry, I'm sorry. This has no doubt been answered before on the
list
but I wonder if a consensus has been arived at. The question is, coming
from
Access how do I start learning .Net? Which are the best books, or other
resources? I don't even know the questions to ask really. Am I talking
about
VB.Net? I guess so. Will I need to also learn ASP.Net, ADO.Net, xyz.Net,
ramalamadingdong.Net or is VB.Net all I need? Anyone got a learning plan
for
me? How long is this going to take me (to be able to turn out a decent
app)?
What software do I need to buy (or will the free Express version get me
going?) So many questions, so little brain.
