An Article of Mine's on the Microsoft.com Homepage

If you squint very, very hard you can find an article of mine I wrote for the ASP.NET Dev Center up on the Microsoft home page - www.microsoft.com.  It's in the Visual Studio .NET section, second article of three listed: How to Move From Visual Basic to ASP.NET.

Next step: have the article appear on MSN.com and/or MSNBC.com.

Speaking of Microsoft MSDN articles, I've got a whole series forthcoming in the C# Dev Center on data structures, of which I've finished the first of the tentative six part series (the article will hopefully get online in the next couple of weeks).  Should be a fun and interesting series.

I could have used this about 4 months ago.

I'd made the transition from VB 6 to .NET, which was painful, but honestly worth it.

Then I transitioned over to ASP.NET, and that was a whole different ball of wax. Tasty wax, but different.

Nick, did you read my article? Did you find it worthwhile? Speaking from experience, what would you have added/removed/changed about my article to make it more informative for VB 6 developers transitioning to ASP.NET? Thanks.

I just read it - I think it's a great intro.

It took me a while to get my mind around the new concepts, and I'm still wrestling with them.

Couple of additional points:
You can use object oriented methods to pass values between ASPX forms. I'll have to dig up the code and post it for you to look at. The Query (?) method of passing values works just fine, but the ASP method is a little cleaner.

Another link to refer to is

Great indexed resource for .NET programming.
