depends on what you know already

good at ASP 3.0?  go with VB.NET

good with Java or Javascript?  C# will be easier to follow along with

LOL- Umm what if i said I am not good at anything but html - i only very sketchy bits abouts asp 3.0. I know html well, now i want to diversify into another language that could make mine and my friends sites more better. As i use WWF on them and they are done in asp i thought i would try my hand at that.... the asp classic thread say do asp.net as its the future so i should learn that.

Seems like most of the major freeware packages are being done in C#.

ASP.Net is more than just ASP on steroids. ASP has about a half dozen classes - e.g. response.xxxxx, ASP.NET has 3700+. As noted, understanding the framework/how the classes work is the big thing. The language is secondary. The 2004 version due out later this year is supposed to be extremely devloper friendly.

what do you reckon to just buying a book then from pc world  (i hate those guys) and going from there!! I think that sounds it could be a good start.

MMM this is really starting to sound like more trouble than its worth, but i suppose its something i am going to have try before i can add my opinion.

7 months ago I didn't know a thing about asp.Net but now i've built my project in asp.net and my second marker says i've got a first class project . I started with Sams teach youreslf asp.net in 24 hours. that teaches you the very basics and helps you to start as a beginner. After a while it becomes useless because as time goes on you start to master more tricks not covered in the book.

But I have to say the book layed a very good foundation for me.
