Well when I installed my VB.NET I had like 5 CD;s I had to install but I got them for free cause Im takin the class at school...sorry that wasnt much help

 

The five cds arn't all VB.Net, that's just one CD.

 

One is the Pre-requisites, which I believe has the .Net SDK. One is VB.Net and three are MSDN disks with mad loot information.

I think when you have VB.Net/VS.Net installed, you already have the SDK1.1 (if you have 2003).

 

Maybe it already detected it on your computer and just threw down documentation.

 

I havn't downloaded it, I just installed VB.Net (then later VS.Net) from the CDs and then downloaded the Component One Resource Pack.

There is no free IDE from Microsoft, only the Framework is provided for free. With the framework you get the compiler - command line only. If you install nothing else, you'd have to use Notepad (or something similar) to write your code and compile it on the command line.

 

Visual Studio is Microsoft's IDE. The IDE is basically a text editor/compiler (a LOT more actually) that works with the framework. But you don't need Visual Studio to write, compile, or run .NET applications.

 

If you want a free "IDE" that works with .NET, there are a couple that I'm aware of. There are separate ones for WinForms and WebForms. The one for WinForms that I've heard of is called SharpDevelop[/ur] and is for C# or VB.NET. I'm sure there are others, but I've heard decent things about that one.

anand,

I can't help you with the command line options - never done it that way myself (lucky enough to use Visual Studio). You'll have to do SOME investigation on your own - try reading the help that came with the framework or search Google. I think there have even been a few threads on this forum that talked about options though a Google for a tutorial/sample might be best.

 

Or, try out the SharpDevelop IDE. If you're new to programming, I'd strongly suggest some kind of IDE so that you can "play" around without having to worry too much about all the details of setting up the compiler.
