Hello all

I have a general question I hope someone can help me answer. I am a newbie to .Net and I am in the process of getting ready to start taking some classes. At work, we are going to move some of our apps to the .net framework. I am trying to get head start on learning. I am going to buld some web apps on my own time at home. The problem is I can not fork out the money needed for visual studio. I was looking at Visual C# .net 2003 software bundle. I was woundering what I would be missing if I learned with this instead of the visual studio. We are only going to build apps with C# and use some ASP. Are there big differences between the two or something I will not be able to do with one or the other. Thanks for you time in advance for answering my question
 
Before you look at forking out cash for toying around with code at home,
you should check out SharpDevelop. I think it's a pretty good, free (as in
beer) IDE:

Erik,

Thanks for the info. I will take a look at that. I also got my manager to expense the Visual C# .net 2003. So I will play with that too.
