ASP.Net is hardly like ASP. It is a fully-compiled, object-oriented
programming technology. And because of the HTTP environment, it is more
complex to program an ASP.Net web application than it is to write a Windows
Form. Therefore, the analogy of driving a Mercedez Benz truck to and from
work is not applicable. Visual Studio.Net has all the tools you need to
develop and debug an ASP.Net web application as quickly as possible.
Therefore, and because it is the software developed by the developers of
ASP.Net, I would strongly recommend using it.

hi
been using Editplus for JScript/MS Access/ASP for 4 years now while asp
programming. Would like to try some other environment now while migrating
to C#/.Net
Some environments I find interesting are
* Aspexpress
text editor so I get full control of my code. Might be too simple?
* Visual studio
for web page programming... I'd think it's like driving a Benz truck to
and from work - fancy but too much!
* SharpDevelop
seems like the coolest - open source (free) project having many features
from VS and even more. Looks very cool.

Can you guys please comment, what are you using, what's your preference?
Thx
