What editor, what environment to program in?

[David]

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

I like drivin a benz truck. I would drive it to the bathroom, if it would
fit in our living room. What im tryin to say is, i like VS.Net. As you say,
there are many options, many functions... but you get used to it, and change
it as you need it. I think SharpDevelop is a close second after VS.Net. So
if u like to support the OpenSource community, go with it. Its nearly as
functional as VS.Net, and its main opportunity is, that it focuses (uff is
it really focuses, i hope so) on C#.

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.
