Hi. I am a Second Year Computer Engg student, who has a pretty good background in C/C++ programming, but otherwise, programming illiterate. Anyways, I wanted to update myself by learning VB. So, here are a couple of questions to which I need some answers : 1. I hav got VB.NET, infact I hav got the entire .NET Framework software (whereas I don't have a VB 6.0 IDE). I also know that conventional VB & VB.NET are revolutionary different. If so, is it necessary to learn conventional VB before VB.NET?? Suppose I learn VB, then would it be easier/difficult to adapt to VB.NET?? Also, what does today's programmer rely upon - Good old VB or VB.NET?? And for a beginner, which is easier?? 2. Also, could u recommend some books for learning/beginning/mastering VB & VB.NET Also, Please recommend some E-book-sites from which I can get a soft-copy of the books. 3. Also, what's the difference between VB & VBScript?? (I know that VBScript is nothing but VB embedded in an HTML page along with a Web document, but some more details on this would be welcome) Any information on the above will be very much appreciated. Ciao, Rajiv
Here I go No If you know C++ VB will be just like a piece of cake. [thread=21]VB Resources[/thread] VBScript is MS stretch towards competing with JavaScript but even the MS sites have JavaScript and Not VBScript. I would suggest instead of going through VB 6 - VB.NET path go for C# path in .NET as you have some basics about C domain under your grasp and learning VB is just matter of hours.
As always, Shabbir to the rescue!! Only, the rescued, here is not a damsel in distress!! Anyways, THX A LOT 4 the suggestions. Will take into account all of what u said. Also, THX 4 the info. This forum really is good. Ciao, Rajiv

I learned vb.net before pascal. Hell its easy. Pascal is hell. Can I say vb.net is new, VB is older and outdated?
