If so, where is a good tutorial to teach me C#?

If you are not totally new to programming then do yourself a favor and just read the C# language specification.
Also, read a good book. I've always liked the Wrox books.
If you tried to start using Visual Studio before you know the language, you would likely be able to build a GUI, because that is mostly drag and drop. But you wouldn't be able to make it do anything, because you don't know the coding behind it.
C# isn't as immediately intuitive as VB.NET can be, but I find it much nicer once you actually learn what you are doing. So if you are serious about learning, get a good book.

alrighty, thanks for the help.
P.S. The hurricane rain on your parade? No damage I hope?

Nope. Didn't even get windy in San Antonio.

well that's good. It looked like some of your Texas neighbors got pretty wet.
It might not be bad idea to use Visual C# to study C#. You use the builder
to make GUI and add C# code to handle events (i.e. button presses etc.),
handle values from controls etc.
Well, you learn by doing, and IntelliSense (the predictive text feature) is amazing for discovering what objects can do, but you still need to learn the fundamentals of the language from a book or web tutorial.

I agree, and have already started looking into it.

I tell you what - if you know VB.NET already and you want to learn C# in short order without the hassle of books, then this web page is a fantastic tool: http://www.harding.edu/fmccown/vbnet...omparison.html
It got me up to speed in almost no time at all... if you've got your wits about you, you could use it to learn C# in the matter of a couple of days... C# does have some unexpected idiosyncrasies that this doesn't seem to account for - but it'll put you in the right direction quickly.
Another great tool is: http://labs.developerfusion.co.uk/co...to-csharp.aspx
This might also be useful: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/dotnet...ifference.aspx
They give you the added advantage that if you know one of the two languages, you can easily figure out the equivalent code in the other. It's like learning two languages for the price of one.

Thanks very much, I'll look into it.
