Excellent book with practical examples. Some may prefer more C# examples but if ASP.NET does take off it might very well be seen more often in VB.NET anyway.


If you want just one reference on your desk I recommend this book. Like most "nutshell" books everything is there in one place.


The book could be improved by giving the reader a little tutorial on converting VB to C#. Not every reader is going to be familiar with the syntax differences.


ASP.NET class names and page directives remain the same however, no mater what language is used, so I don't see the lack of C# examples as a big deal.


Now all we need are more ASP.NET projects!!
