Question Need a Good Book
Can someone direct me to a really good book on like lets say a vb.net code dictionary. I have been coding for 3 years now in php and mysql so i know i could pick vb.net up quick if i had the right book. Right now i have Beginning VB.net by wrox and a Microsoft Book and a Vb.net book by visual blue print. Any other ones you can think of that are really good. Thanks in advanced.

Are you using VB.NET for the web or application programming?

If it's for web, I'd recommend you check out C# - it is more similar to PHP than VB. I have "Beginning ASP.NET using C#" from Wrox, which I've found pretty good. Hopefully you can still get it. I also have "OOP with .NET (VB.NET & C#)" from MS Press, which I wouldn't recommend.

That's all I've read so far. I don't think I'll purchase anymore. You can learn most things pretty well via the web these days. I come from a VB/ASP background, so obviously my prior knowledge will help me out a bit.
