| Where can one find a manual for Visual Studio 2010 Basic Express ? |

#1 Generally, you should be looking for any VB or C# book for beginners. Most of them will have instructions on how to use Visual Studio (Express). Just go to a bookstore and browse a bit.
But.. why VB and not C#? Make no mistake, VB.NET is not easier (I'll repeat it: it's not easier than C#) and C# pays better. Both languages are pretty much equal in what you can do with them. |

Here's something you can use:
Visual Basic 2010 Express Tutorial 1 - Getting Started Hello World http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_hsPfoOmNIM I'm sure there are plenty of videos on MS sites such as ASP.NET, etc. |

Perfect. Thanks!
I've been using one form of basic or another for 30 years now. I actually wish they had a Pascal version :) I'm just dabbling, and don't really have the time to learn an entire new language. |

#2: depends what you are used to. I cut my teeth on VB and PowerBuilder (and REXX before that). If someone started with C or Java then certainly C# would be more familiar.
For smaller quick apps I still tend to use VB because I can spit them out much faster due to my familiarity. C# would be a lot slower for me because I don't use it as much. At some point, I'll probably switch exclusively to C#. #4: http://www.learnvisualstudio.net has a lot of great videos on all things .net. $60 membership though. |
