Basic C# Training

[Jony.Gamez]

I am looking for :
- a basic C# course that covers C# fundamentals.
- Then from that a basic webservices course (C#)
- and then a basic SQL reporting servicves 2005 course.

Now i know that microsoft offer these in their accredetation courses.
But i want the best "basic" courses out there right now. If possible
available in online and textbook form. Any guding light here would be
useful. Thanks.

I'm a newby myself to C#. My advise is either get Visual Studio or download
the free C# Express if you haven't already. Then go to Amazon and get Visual
C# 2005 Step by Step from Microsoft Press. It's about the best primer I've
found for C#. After you go through that book completely you can get more
books to get you further along. I also spend some time browsing these
newsgroups and other online resources.

If you have the money formal classroom training is nice but I neither have
the money nor the time for that. I'm currently building an application for a
medical clinic so don't think you have to be an expert to do some useful
programming, because you don't.

some are free.

The father and son team Deitel and Deitel [1] publish the best textbooks for
learning programming languages. Its all structured lessons with examples and
excercises just like you asked for; a textbook. I learned C# that way. For
Web Services I used the QUE 70-320 MCAD Training Guide but you may want to
consider learning ATLAS and use JSON instead. I don't use reporting
services.

I admire the effort that went into LearnVisualStudio and would have kept
buying into an otherwise well done initiative myself if not for the fact
that the current technology can only be used to produce snoozeware. Through
no fault of the producer, this stuff will literally put you to sleep. For
example, videos do not have useable controls like bookmarks or search and
find, and code can not be copied from the presentations and pasted into
other apps for ongoing study of the application of the principles being
taught.

Clinton, did you know that most lessons come with source code to back up
what the video's teach?
