Hi guys

I’m a newbie in asp.Net.

 

I’ve been programming in asp now for less than a year. However I’m thinking to switch to .Net as I have read many promising articles about it. Can one or two people enlighten me on how easy it is to switch etc. as I intend to write my final year project in .Net instead of classic asp. I’ve already gotten a book on it (Teach yourself asp.Net in 24 hours: as I got the c++ version a year back and it was very helpful) which I intend to go through starting sometime next month, but I would like to hear from programmers how the transition was.  Thanks J

Try not to think of it as the next version of ASP, its not.

Its really a completely new framework/language to get a hold of.  That said, I didn't find it overly difficult as I'd had a fair bit of experience with OO languages.

Strangely, my experience in programming vba on MS Access forms enabled me to get a grip of the 'event-driven' concepts of the new framework.

If you've got experience with C then all the better as it should help you to catch on the the new languages. After a while I got a grasp of the new VB.Net although at times it was little tricky.

A book is always great. So are the many tutorial sites on the net. I started with a few small projects, convinced my boss at work of the advantages and am now completing a couple of major new projects - its great.

Good luck and let us know if you need any help!

Cheers,
Andrew

Thanks for the quick response Bumce. I’ll definitely give it a go; after all I’ve got a whole year to get the project finished.
