ADO.NET 2.0 vs ADO.NET 1.1

I have .NET 2003 installed on my computer and have finally decided to buy an
ADO.NET book. But the book they had is ADO.NET 2.0 Step by Step (I realized
when I got it home).
Questions:
Should I take this book back and find a 1.1 version
Should I replace .NET 2003 with .NET 2005
Should I just go for VB Express since my needs are very simple

Thanks for any thoughts or philosophies on this.

No. Why invest in out-of-date information? Like the rest of the framework,
ADO.NET 2.0 is an evolution of earlier versions of the framework. All core
principles like Connections, Commands, Parameters, DataReaders etc. still
apply.

VB Express is there for free and will remain so. Why not install it side-by-side
to your VS .NET 2003 and give it a spin?

Cheers,
