Where to start ? 1

[denoxis]

Hi,

I've been looking around there are examples, tips & tricks, benchmarks for C#, VB.NET etc. However I need to know the concepts of ASP.NET including the its structure, layers etc in a visual way if possible. Also its relationship with XML, server side tag concept, and ADO.NET. Since I'm a programmer and I do ASP for a long time it's not going be too hard I believe, but I need to start somewhere that shouldn't be confusing. Any suggesttions? (Especially from those of you whom have ASP experince in the past and swithed to .NET)

Thank you.

get ASP.NET step by step by G. Andrew Duthie. It starts from the beginning and is easy to understand.

It doesn't cost much and the videos are a good place to start

A good set of books are published by Wrox. Here are a few titles:

"Beginning VB.NET"
"Beginning C#"
"Professional VB.NET"
"Professional C#" (check my review at thread732-338381)

"Beginning ASP.NET using C#"
"Beginning ASP.NET using VB.NET"
"Professional ASP.NET"

"ASP.NET Programmer's Reference"
"ADO.NET Programmer's Reference"
"ADO.NET Programming"

I also reccomend "Building Web Solutions with ASP.NET and ADO.NET" Dino Esposito from Microsoft Press
