Yes you can ... ASP.NET is a library where you can use C# to write your web
based applications. In fact when you write them, it is in a very similar
style to desktop applications. I would grab an entry level ASP.NET book and
work through its examples to get a better idea.

Cheers,

Greg

So do I need some sort of a web server to test these applications or can I
do that on a local machine?

You can do it on your local machine.

You should be able to install IIS without any issue (unless you are running
XP Home etc which does not support it).

And if you are using VS2005 (or Visual Web Developer, which is free), you
don't even need IIS to run your asp.net applications. There is a lightweight
web server coming with VS, able to test your applications on your local
machine.
