Visual Basic.net

Hi,

Is there a difference between the VB that comes with

Visual Studio 2005 and Visual basic.net, or are they both the same?

Thanks.....Eric

They are the same, sort of. VB 2005 is the latest version of Vb.NET. VB2003 and VB2002 are also VB.NET.

To comment a little further, VS2003 & 2003 had a VB based component called VB.Net. Many VB users didn't like it and delayed our migrations. I was one of them. I thought 2002 and 2003 were REALLY BORING and I stayed with VB6.

Nomeclaturally, there is no VB Dot .Net 2005. It's simply VB. I don't mind the DOT net at all. But in this release, it's technically VB 2005 or VB8.

I was just wondering because I have VS 2005 and I bought a

book called programming in VB.net 2005.

Did I get the right thing?

Thanks.....Eric

I have the visual basic.net book because it is the required edition for my class, since all the computers in the lab run on it. However, as i was installing the cd for it i was not able to register my product online. The link given is not working. Is there any alternative way of registering it?
