The following information are valid for dot net 2003 :\n\n#1. How to get the path for "My Documents" and other system folders?\n\nUse the GetFolderPath method of the System.Environment class to retrieve this information.\n\n  MessageBox.Show( Environment.GetFolderPath( Environment.SpecialFolder.Personal ) ); \n\n#2. How to get the path to my running EXE?\n\nThe Application class has a static member ExecutablePath that has this information.\n\nstring appPath = Application.ExecutablePath; \n\nAlternative: The tip below is provided by cbono2000 \n\nSystem.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location\n\n#3. How to determine which operating system is running?\n\nUse System.Environment's OSVersion static (shared) property.\n\nOperatingSystem os = Environment.OSVersion;\nMessageBox.Show(os.Version.ToString());\nMessageBox.Show(os.Platform.ToString());\n\n#4. How to get a file's name from the complete path string?\n\nUse System.IO.Path.GetFileName and System.IO.Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension static methods.\n#5. How to get a file's extension from the complete path string?\n\nUse System.IO.Path.GetExtension static method. \n\nIn Dot net 2005 you can use  the 'My' Name Space :\nThe My namespace includes the following classes, each of which includes a number of useful members:\n    * Application\n    * Computer\n    * Forms\n    * Resources\n    * Settings\n    * User\n\nFor example, to play an audio file in Visual Basic 2005, My.Computer.Audio.Play("C:&#92;Beep.wav")\nOr, to play a system sound, you might write code like this:\nMy.Computer.Audio.PlaySystemSound(SystemSounds.Asterisk)\n\nto ping a computer:\nIf My.Computer.Network.IsAvailable Then\n    If My.Computer.Network.Ping("http://www.microsoft.com") Then\n        MsgBox("Microsoft's site is available.")\n    End If\nEnd If\n\nMy.Computer.FileSystem provides a flat, stateless, discoverable, and easy-to-use way to perform common file system operations.For example, developers frequently require file, folder, and drive properties (such as a file's size, encoding, and so on). Using My.Computer\n\nFor Each drv As DriveInfo In My.Computer.FileSystem.Drives\n    If drv.IsReady Then\n        Debug.WriteLine(String.Format( _\n         "{0}:&#92; {1:N0}", drv.Name, drv.TotalSize))\n    End If\nNext\n\nThe My.User class provides information about the current user, including Name and IsInRole properties. \nMsgBox(My.User.Identity.Name & ":" & _\n    My.User.IsInRole("Administrators"))\n\nIf you wanted to determine the current user's application data folder, you could use simple code like the following:\nMsgBox(My.Computer.FileSystem.SpecialDirectories.CurrentUserApplicationData)\n\nMsgBox(My.WebServices.Numbers.NumToStr(123.45))

You, can just go to the website, and install the latest version, that is out, It's version 6..They have a newer one out now, its version 7, but it is still in beta (testing) I would recommend that you get the 6 version, for now..I heard the 7 is picking up, a lot of problems..Here is the website, where you can get it..http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/default.mspx\nYou do not have to uninstall the older version, it will just install the newer one..Good Luck..

In the 'System' namespace, you can use the static 'OSVersion' property of the 'Environment' class to get a reference to an OperatingSystem object for your system.\n\nThe .NET Framework version 2.0 has augmented the OperatingSystem class (which 1.1 and 1.0 do not have) to add a "ServicePack" property that you can use to determine which Service Pack is available.\n\nExample:\n\n   Console.WriteLine(Environment.OSVersion.ServicePack);\n\nI've included a link to the appropriate online MSDN documentation below.

While Internet Explorer is up and running, click on HELP - About.  You will see the version number there.

.NET is kind of a translator - it's an effort to let people program in a variety of different languages, which then gets compiled into an intermediate language, when then gets compiled again into your machine's language.  It's sort of a lingua-franca translator.  Instead of having to have all these languages (VC#, VC++, VB, VJ++, etc) have to have their own compilers, they get translated by the same compiler into an intermediary language, which then gets translated again.  A bit slower in the long run and not quite as flexible, but it's still kind of a cool concept.

executable which u have of a .net desktop application is actually not a true executable. It contains CIL (common intermediate Language) code. So it needs .net framework to run, which compiles it just in time (when the exe is clicked) and then runs it.\n\nIf .net application is build using .net 2003 then it will going to need .net framework 1.1 and if it is build using .net 2005 then it will going to need .net framework 2.0\n\nYou can check in Add/Remove application whether the .net framework is installed or not.

I am currently running .NET 2003 and 6.0 and am not experiencing any problems.

I think the current version is 8.0, so why would you want to learn 6.0?  6 had a number of issues, including iffy compatibility with the std:: namespace.\n\nAs another poster mentioned, they have a "lite" version of VS 2005 you can download; I believe the version in that is a subset of 8.0.

There's no appreciable difference in the performance of ASP.NET 2.0 versus 1.1.\n\nHowever, you need to keep pace with changes in the .NET Framework; eventually, Microsoft will stop supporting older technologies.\n\nASP.NET 2.0 has a significantly better collection of layout controls; has very useful, cross-platform navigation controls; has significantly more convenient methods of data access and display; makes it far easier to create custom components and handlers; and has simplified many of the more common controls, such as those used for input and data handling.

Dear\n If you have worked  with Dcom. If you know about Ado object. there was a problem with them (versions problem) called DLL hell . they have removed it in ADO.net. they provide disconnected data set . More faster development   if a problem takes 7 days in java to fix you can do it in one day with dot net . And there are alto  of issues like this .

Yes. and it must be .NET framework 2.0

Visual Studio .NET and Visual Studio 2005 have no difference, just this that VS2005 is the latest version in the series of VS.NET\n\nin common practice VS.NET has come to be synonymous to VS.NET 2003 edition so VS2005 is the next generation VS supporting both .NET application programming (over the new .NET 2.0 framework), also supports legacy C++ coding (i mean without the use of .NET components, that can then be compiled to native executables.) and also supports coding for the coming up Windows Vista OS platform using the next generation .NET platform called WinFX\n\nso you can say VS2005 is a superset of VS.NET 2003\n\nHope this will clear all your ambuigities.
