If you just want to run .NET applications, you only need to download and

install the .NET Framework, which acts as a virtual machine, so that

your .NET-code (C#, VB.NET) can run. To download the 20 MB framework,

just go to:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/downloads/default.asp?url=/downloads/sample.as

p?url=/MSDN-FILES/027/001/829/msdncompositedoc.xml&frame=true



If you want to develop .NET applications, you have to download the .NET

SDK which includes compilers that compile your C#, VB.NET code into an

intermediate language that eventually will "run" on the framework. For

the SDK, go to:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/downloads/default.asp?url=/downloads/sample.as

p?url=/msdn-files/027/000/976/msdncompositedoc.xml&frame=true



Althought Visual Studio.NET is per se not necessary for software

development in .NET, it's highly recommended.



And since those URLs are pretty long, I usually direct people to go to

www.c-sharpcorner.com, which has a link to those two URLs above.



As for ASP.NET, only the web server needs the .NET framework (or does it

need the SDK as well, someone know?), while the client can still surf

the web with his/her old browser on an OS that does not have the .NET

framework.



Hope it helps,

Minh.

Do You Yahoo!?



Get your free @yahoo.com address at http://mail.yahoo.com

Of course these are great sites to look at.  Let me give some more focused advice, though.



To start to get an idea of what asp.net code looks like here's a great tutorial with samples that you can run and view source on
side-by-side.  It was a great beginning for me.

http://samples.gotdotnet.com/quickstart/aspplus/Default.aspx



In particular, start with the "Getting started" section of course, and then look at the "ASP.NET Webforms" section.  I think that
will be a great start.



There are great sites out there and I love them for quickies - articles, tidbits, tips, tricks, code snippets, etc...

BUT at least personally, when I start with a new technology or any new subject matter, I like to read as much as possible from a
single 'all encompassing' source.  It's hard to find good articles worth reading that cover what you need/want to know.



I started with Wrox Introducing .net for an overview on what .net is and what it brings to the table.

A new series I recently took a look at and was very impressed with was codenotes - they have one on .net and one on vb.net. What I
read was very concise and to the point yet accurate and understandable.

For more detail and coverage, I have been enjoying WROX's Professional ASP.NET book.  It's really great!!

If you're set on one vb.net or c#.net you may also choose to look at WROX's Beginning ASP.NET Using VB.NET (or C#.net).



Basically, I'd suggest looking at the quickstart tutorial located at the link I mentioned above.

If you can you'd probably benefit a lot from reading some sort of book on .net (there are so many great ones).



In terms of what you need to get started, all you really need is to download the .net framework (you'll probably want version 1.0)
and install it.

You can find a link to the download here: http://www.asp.net/download.aspx

Then with the framework, you will be able to compile and run any code you write.

You can write code in your editor of choice (notepad or whatever).

Visual Studio.net Version 1 is not free so unless you have msdn you're not in luck.

Note, the visual studio.net install includes .net framework so you don't need to install both seperately.

Be forewarned, you can only run VS.NET Version 1 with .net framework version 1 and vice versa.

You cannot run vs.net beta2 with the framework version 1 or vs.net version 1 with the framework beta2.

That's why if you can't get your hands on vs.net v1 you may want to consider going with all beta2 (vs.net beta2 and framework beta2)
for the moment.  Then if you do get your hands you can uninstall beta2 and install version 1 and then to get beta2 code to work with
version1 just recompile it with version1 framework....



hope this has helped.

Good luck,

Arthur Gaisin

so correct me if i'm wrong,

i need .net framework to run my .net application, just like asp3.0 runs asp

It can access many different databases, including Access, Sql 7, Sql 2000,

Oracle, DB2, whatever.  If it has a data adapter written for it and/or an ODBC

driver, it can connect to it.
