Hi all,
I am trying to start writing programs in VB.Net and ASP.Net for Windows and
web applications.
I have background in VB and classic ASP. The windows applicaiton will be
database related ( displaying data from database, updating etc.), so Grid
component will be big part of it. The windows application will be quite
big.
1. What resources are out there for learning the .Net things?
2. Is there any commercial product or source code for similar application
that sets up basic classes that we can buy and changes for our needs?
3. Is there any need for buying third party components?
Thanks for your reply.

Hi Mokles,
I recommend you starting from here http://www.asp.net
You can start using ASP.NET WEbMatrix and its made for ASP.NET and its free
and GOOD! Or you use Visual Studio .Net which is also a great tool.
It all depends on what you want to do!
ASP.NET has different controls and classes to play with so get started..

Hi,
1. there are plenty of them, but do try this one: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...dSolutions.asp http://www.asp.net http://www.gotdotnet.com/ http://www.15seconds.com/ http://visualbasic.about.com/od/learnvbnet/
2. there are plenty of component outside, but still depends on what
application you are building, try to search around in: http://www.componentsource.com/
These are highly rated .net component, www.componentone.com www.infragistics.com www.softwarefx.com
3. It depends on what are you going to do, and how much time do you have.
Using third party component could save lots of time, however some are
expensive.
Do feel free to ask, and welcome to the .NET world.

Hi Mokles,
Just adding to the other suggestions:
1) there are really good starter books from Microsoft Press that you might be interested in looking at:
a)Microsoft ASP.NET Programming with Microsoft Visual Basic .NET Version 2003 Step By Step
b) MCAD/MCSD Self-Paced Training Kit: Developing Web Applications with Microsoft Visual Basic .NET
and Microsoft Visual C# .NET, Second Edition
c) MCAD/MCSD Self-Paced Training Kit: Developing Windows-Based Applications with Microsoft Visual
Basic .NET and Microsoft Visual C# .NET, Second Edition
Buying third party applications is mainly up to you and what you would like to achieve in your application.
Hope that helps,
Michelle Hlaing

there a way to change it at design time? No matter what I do,

In Vs 2005 you have new applicationsEvents.vb I was testing it in a simple

terminating on an unhandled exception, and for me this is important. In an

Hi
In my app I have a SplashScreen, a login form and a main form. On launching
the app, I'd like to show the SplashScreen while reading config files and
attempting a database connection. I show progress of these tasks on a label
on the SplashScreen form.
Once this is completed ok, the splash screen should close and the login form
should be displayed. A successful login closes that form and shows the main
form.

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not.
