Reference for .NET

[Pastia Radu]

I used to do some work in PHP and it was very easy because I found
everything I needed on their web site. If you searched for "file system" in
the function list it showed you all yhe available functions for work with
the file system. I am having a hard time with VB .NET beacuse I can't seem
to find what I need. For example I need to get the free disk space from a
hard drive, I searched the help for it but no luck. Is there a site or some
software that provides better help for functions ?
PS. In VB6 I had an application that contained the API library, sorted by
catogory and with an example for every one, really easy to find what was
needed.

The .NET SDK and Visual Studio .NET both come with complete reference
documenation. They don't have examples for every possible method, but they
at least give you the definition.
The docs are also available online at MSDN
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/d...y/en-us/cpref/html/cpref_start.asp?frame=true

There are tons of good examples all over the web. Use google.com.

Using google, I found this article that would probably help you with that
specific scenario.
