IT'S URGENT.PLS REPLY AS EARLY AS POSSIBLE IF U KNOW.

Have you tried Google? You should be able to find all the answers you seek there.

But in the mean time:

- Solution file: Collection of .NET projects. Projects can be different .NET languages.

- Project file: Collection of code files that will compile into a single assembly (.dll or .exe). All code in a single project must be the same language.

- Assemblyinfo.*: Code file containing meta data decorators for the assembly. These decorators decorate the assembly with additional information that describes them (i.e. Company, application name, assembly name, culture info, version, etc.) The file itself has comments that describe some of this.

- *.RESX: XML Based resources. This resources can be used in many ways. They can be compiled directly into the assembly or deployed as they are to provide post compile changes. You should really google this one because it's a more complex subject in itself.

- *.PDB: This is a database of meta data about the assembly. It primarily exists for debugging. It contains links between execution instructions in the compiled code and the original source lines. This is what allows you to see humanly meaningful error output that tells you the line of code and line number information when code breaks. They are not, however, essential to the execution of your assemblies and can be disposed.
