Hi Radith,
I sympathise totally with you: I'm not new to programming, but (was) new to
VS and initially overwhelmed by the editor. Not sure about restoring the
defaults (reinstall VS? ;-) and I guess the generated code can only be
"restored" by creating the form again - keep away from it until you know
what you're doing.
For me, the best way to get kick-started was to get some training. I'd
skimmed through a couple of books (VS.Net for Dummies for example) but the
aha-effect didn't come until I'd actually seen someone write software.
Take a look at the syntax of the languages and choose the one you're most
comfortable with: with the era of .Net there is no difference in the power
of the languages since they both precompile to a common language (everything
you can do with vb.net incl. GUIs you can do with c#.Net). For a novice
programmer tho', I'd recommend VB.Net. Both will be in demand.
Thats my 2 cents

Dear All;
I'm fairly new to programming and vb.net; Following a few crappy tutorials
and just mucking about I've seen the "Windows Form Desinger generated code".
Now, i know we're not suppose to touch that but just incase that we do, how
can we restore the defaults. AND ALSO, visual studio.net's IDE is so large
that I still can't find a somewhat "Restore Defaults" for options, layouts
etc.. Pls. help me find the restore defaults for basic features as well as
the generator code. Also what would be the best book for learning to program
with VB.NET assuming that no programming knowledge is acquired.
ALSO, after starting off with VB.NET what's the language with the most
demand, C#?? >> Stupid Q. : Can u make applications with GUI's with C#.
Thanx in advance.
