I understand about software audits, but under .NET, it doesn't really matter if you use C# or VB as they both use the same runtime.

One other thing that I just thought of. Go to your local .NET user group and Code Camps. You won't understand everything at first, but eventually you'll start to pick things up.

I've been all the way down US 40 into Colorado, but it's been many years.

I can either fight the system that signs my checks or get borged and go with the flow. From what others have shared this C# etc. isn't that bad however may not be, from a purists position, the best solution. But then I'm no purist.
