1. Get the free .NET framework 1.1 and install it.

2. Get the free Visual c# express for home users beta ( free ).

3. Go to this site: www.c-sharpcorner.com and read the articles.

4. Go to windows forms and find the shortest and easiest article with
source code in the text.

5. Code it up and run it.

6. If it runs, you're a c#/.Net programmer.

Actually, you're not really a programmer until you start making jokes
like this:

====
An electrical engineer, a mechanical engineer, and a computer programmer
were riding in a car together one day when the car broke down. It just
wouldn't start. The electrical engineer said, "It must be a bad spark plug."
The mechanical engineer said, "It must be a bad valve." The computer
programmer said, "Let's all get out of the car and get back in again."
====

If you understand this parable, you'll understand the blessed mystery of
the C# programmer. Peace be with you on your journey.

The last guy sounds more like a Tech Support Engineer to me.

I think the c# programmer might say:

"This car isn't writen with managed code. It's a null pointer exception."

Is it not a bit daft to suggest that he start the learning process using a
language that isn't even released, won't be mainstream probably for the
better part of a year and a development enviroment that isn't even stable!

Learning programming can be difficult enough with stacking the odds up
against you before you even touch the keyboard

In addition, best to my knowledge, there is also no book available (paper/
ebook) for the Express products which could be used as a guide while
learning.
