>In most of the cities, there is a minimum of 2 to 4 times as many job opportunities for C# over VB, which is exactly why I will continue to learn C#.Well, then, I'm curious why you said, less than an hour before this, that you were going to learn VB?
You said:
>I am heading in a new direction with VB.NET and ASP.NET training, but will still study C# at least a couple hours per week. It's a nice tool, but there's still those doggone curly brackets and the strong case requirement in C#. I suppose one can get used to that.~~Bonnie

>>I'm curious. Have you done a search to determine the number of VB jobs compared to C#? I suspect there are many more for C# and they typically pay more.
