John, I was the same way. Still very much finding my way in ASP.net. But the basics are pretty straightforward. An ASP.net application is basically, Normal .net code, c# or vb.net whatever. Normal HTML Javascript (optional)(inserted by VS) Create a new asp.net project. Add a webform, select code in separate file. Change to split view Add a SQLDataSource control to the designer part of the form, hook it up to a small table. Add a DataGrid control to the designer part of the form, set the datasource. Run the project. See http://www.asp.net/get-started to get started. I've only done web forms and Ajax so far.

I know nothing about this. Both clients need to enter data and have multiple users hitting the database from home and office computers. Where do I start? I am getting pretty good with C# / SQL Server but those are computer based "applications". If I could do an internet download installation, I could probably (maybe) go there. Except what about admin rights etc. Is asp.net viable? Is it close to C#? If I keep the data entry screens simple can I do it in C# and then just "press a button" to turn it into ASP.net? Please don't make rude noises here. ;) I just know nothing about internet facing application programming and I feel really inadequate on this stuff. -- John W.
