VB.NET is a language (as well as C#). ASP.NET is the infrastructure that is
provided by the .NET Framework to handle Web applications...

Hi Sumit,

- VB.NET is one of the languages that you can use to program .NET
applications.
- ASP.NET is a technology or kind of application to build web sites. You can
use the language VB.NET to code your ASP.NET application.

About books, go to Amazon (www.amazon.com), search for "ASP.NET", and read
the user reviews for each book.

VB.net is one of the primary languages you can use to write code using the
..net framework (the others being C#, C++ and J# - there may be others as
well, but I'm not certain). While there is a close family resemblance
between VB6 and VB.net, they are worlds apart in reality. VB.net is a
fundamentally different language from VB6, sharing the basic syntax and
little else from what I can see. With VB.net (and C#) you can write console
based applications, DLL library components and windows applications.


ASP.net is a set of interrelated technologies you can use to develop dynamic
web based applications (ASP stands for Active Server Pages). ASP.net can use
either VB.net or C# in order to generate the web pages. Each web page is
compiled at run time to a DLL.


In my experience, any of the WROX books are pretty good. I'm less familiar
with the O'Reilly books, but I gather they are pretty good as well. And of
course there are the books from the Microsoft Library. Sorry I don't have a
specific title to recommend.
