ASP --> ASP.NET Development

[Guest]

Just a quick question - I'm an ASP developer having little or no experience
with ACTUAL Visual Basic. I recently purchased a tutorial on .net, but it:

A) Seems geared twards (assumes I know) standard visual basic
B) Focuses mostly on "drag and drop"

I'm not a big fan of drag and drop, I like to hard-code my pages. Are there
any books / programs anyone could recommend for a former ASP developer moving
to ASP.NET? Thanks!

Hi

Probably you are talking about Visual Studio .NET features rather than ASP
..NET features. VS .NET gives you rich prodcutivity enhancements like
Drag-Drop which looks very similar to your old VB development scenario. To
learn how to migrate from ASP to ASP .net you might have to consider the
technology behind ASP.NET's rich component model rather than this.
