C# website or tutorial book that has step by step projects to learn?

Can anyone recommend a website or book that offers small projects to
do to help you learn the .Net basics and C#? I've been programming for
7+ years but its all been VB6. I'd like to move to .NET but dont know
where to start. I learn better when I can follow along with a sample
project or something.

Thanks!

Best thing you can do is look through the 2005 labs in MSDN and
Coding4Fun and recreate them in 2008.

Tools:
Get the IDE: http://www.microsoft.com/express/download/
(Most VS2005 solution files can be converted to VS2008; I haven't run
into any issues yet...)

Resources:
Samples, Tutorials, and more: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/beginner/default.aspx
More Samples: http://blogs.msdn.com/coding4fun/

Other Stuff I Found Helpful:
OO Principles: http://objectmentor.com/omSolutions/oops_what.html
Design Patterns/Principles in C#: http://www.dofactory.com/Patterns/Patterns.aspx
ReSharper plugin: http://www.jetbrains.com/resharper/ (highly
recommended, not sure if it works on Express Editions)
For any new Language: http://smartprogrammer.blogspot.com/2006/04/15-exercises-for-learning-new.html

Good luck and have fun.

Deitel & Deitel publish exactly what you asked for
http://deitel.com/

Their books are how I learned C# and as a former classroom instructor I
highly recommend their instructional method.
