Hi Jean,
1) In order to build web application can I only buy VB.net instead of the

studio.net package ?

There is not a VB.Net package separate from Visual Studio.Net.
2) Is ASP.net build into VB .net ?

No. ASP.Net is an Internet Server technology, not a programming language.
ASP.Net is installed with the .Net platform. As you probably already know,
the .Net platform is a free download from Windows Update.
3) Does Web Matrix can do all that vb.net does with web application ?

As the answer to your first question indicates, you would have to compare
Web Matrix to Visual Studio.Net, and I'm sure you realize the answer to that
is a definite "no." Web Matrix is a free download from http://www.asp.net,
which is a Microsoft-owned web site for ASP.Net developers. It doesn't even
include a compiler, but instead, uses scripting to create ASP.Net pages and
applications.

actually the c#, jscript.net and vb.net compilers come with the framework,
not visual studio (it only supplies c/c++).

That is true, but those are command-line compilers. There is no IDE.

There is VB.NET standard which you can buy without having to buy the entire
studio.
Or just install the framework and code in note pad.
 
I wasn't aware of this product. Do you have a URL to its location on the MS
site?
