Tips of Converting from Java to C# & .NET

[swebb99]

Hi,

I'm an experienced Java developer, mainly working on GUI front ends.
I've decided its time to try and pick up C# and .NET and add another
string to my bow. Any tips on what tools I should be using, what sites
to visit, what books to take a look at.

Any info gratefully appreciated.

I should add I've never done any microsoft development, so I've no
history on com components or any other things like that in the
microsoft world !

You could start with the Express Version of Visual Studio:

MSDN also has a section on C# for Java developers:
