I'm a database developer working with MS Access, SQL Server and MySQL, and I
would like to develop some browser-based front ends for my databases.
However, building a web-based interface is new to me, and I need to make a
decision about which development language I will learn and use.
I understand that both vb.net and c#.net are powerful languages for this
purpose, and I would like to choose one of the two and focus my efforts on
that language. However, I don't know anything about the relative advantages
and disadvantages of the two.
I have several years of experience programming in VBA in Access, but I've
heard that VB.net is so different that it would almost be like learning a
new language. In any event, I'm not as concerned about taking advantage of
what I might already know about VB as I am about choosing a language which
is likely to be the best web development tool over the next several years -
one that is likely to be in widespread use and supported by the [truly
wonderful] contributors to these newsgroups. At present, it appears both
development platforms meet that criteria.
Can anyone give me some thoughts that might help me with this decision, or
direct me to a source of information that might shed some light on this
subject, and help me make this decision?
Thanks in advance,
Paul
