I have been using VB6 and classic ASP for the past 8 years but last year i switched to dot net (after a lot of fight and struglle to keep in VB but no luck) and the logic thing to do was to go for the C# and i think its the VB for the web developmentUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05292679837122769857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2667995121332629229.post-6532155176756799872008-05-06T15:15:00.000+03:002008-05-06T15:15:00.000+03:00The sharpest....The smartest :)Regards,Mostafa - C...The sharpest....The smartest :)<BR/><BR/>Regards,<BR/>Mostafa - C# MVPAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04369573110626236922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2667995121332629229.post-4277111188371829722008-05-06T08:22:00.000+03:002008-05-06T08:22:00.000+03:00Who cares what you like Bashar Basha!!Take an advi...Who cares what you like Bashar Basha!!<BR/><BR/>Take an advise from a rounder:<BR/><BR/>Like what you enjoy, but you must<BR/>enjoy what they$$ likeBasem HatHathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04410331617069435523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2667995121332629229.post-40713779850174836412008-05-05T18:06:00.000+03:002008-05-05T18:06:00.000+03:00I am switching to C# but totally agree with Bashar...I am switching to C# but totally agree with Bashar's statement that VB is still the easiest and most elegant of the .NET languages.
