Hi friends,
Am very much new to this forum and also to the world of computers...And my first step in the field of computers is ..have just started with VB6.0..VB.Net...and a very little of ASP.Net.

I have no idea of theory part of these languages ...while I am strong in logic..and this profession or career is inevitable for me (I should get adapt to Software field)and no Excuse..

So friends..please if possible ..I like to get more of details more of information of computers (A to Z of computers). that should be in common man language..as i told in beginning Am Beginner Smile

And if you help in small projects in VB6.0, Vb.net,both web and windows application Giving complete step by step flow of project, i.e, What and How the project is (with code)..Its going to be very helpful.Smile

Thanks in Advance...

Buy a book. Or borrow one from a library. Follow the text, and do the exercises. They are written (mostly) by people who are good at explaining concepts - here we are generally better at solving specific problems, and do not often have time to do one-to-one hand holding tuition with beginners!

Trust, me learning in a structured way will really help - if nothing else, it means that all the important stuff is covered, rather than "just getting it working".

Good luck! :)

[edit]P.S. You might want to think about starting with C# instead of VB - it is generally considered a "better" language (and can lead you toward C++ should you need that in the future)[/edit]

First: drop VB6 and VB.Net. Start with c# and asp.net.

Second: Buy some books and read them/enroll on a basic programming course.

Third: read some of the articles here on CP; download and dissect the code. Try and figure out what other people are doing.

Bottom line: all of the people that use this site and program for a living have taken years of hard work to become anything like proficient: however smart you are you will not become a good developer in a few days, weeks or months and no one is simply going to hand over code in the vain hope that you will understand what is going on.

I'm not trying to discourage you, quite the reverse, actually. I'm merely trying to point out the bleeding obvious which you should be able to figure out by reading some of the hundreds of inane questions that people post expecting to get either their homework done or get them out of trouble because they've bitten off far more than they can chew.

So, take your time and read as much as you can before you write a single line of code. When you think you have a glimmer of understanding then ask your question again though I'm willing to bet it'll be a very different question.

Good luck.

Please ignore the warnings of the two previous posters about VB.Net. There is only semantic differences between C# and VB.Net. In other words the only difference between them is the language syntax. Learning C# will in no way help you learn c++ as the only thing similar about them is that they both use curly brackets, otherwises they are worlds apart. Not only is VB.Net a fully fledged programming language, but it is one of the most popular .Net languages. It is far easier to get a job as a VB.Net programmer than it is to get work as a C# programmer, you only have to ask all those CP loungeratti who belittle VB.Net and yet spend 8 hours a day writing VB.Net code .

and ignore the previous answer: whilst he is not entirely incorrect you will find it difficult to get work in banking and finance using VB.net (VB6 is dead: leave it be) and that is where the money is, both in terms of what you can earn and the ability of those institutions to invest in the latest technologies. My choice was not born of snobbery (I have used VB6 and VB.Net in the past when called upon to do so - they are simply tools, nothing more) but of simple economics.
