I just recently returned to programming in VB.NET. I have come back to the
programming side of things due to an internal business need. I have a
library of books for VB that is not huge but it probably larger than the
average Joe's. I had previously coded a little in VB 5.0, skipped version 6
(yeah, sure wich I had gotten into that one), and started studying .NET when
it first came out but put it down for a ~couple of years. I currently have
VS2003 Ent Arch which is, admittedly, more than I need, but I digress.
Here's my question. MS typically hypes the heck out of new VS releases and
I'm wondering if I'm going to "need" to get onboard with VS2005 or if I
should just stick with and try to master what I currently own. How will
VS2003 interact with the 2.0 .NET framework? I am writting small DB
applications and aspx that interact with SQL 2000 Server DBs. Are we
talking worlds of differences in this area? Enough to justify the painful
expense of an upgrade? I know these are questions I will need to answer for
myself; however, I'd like to hear some opinons on the subject.
Thanks,
Mike
