I have an old DVD that I got along time ago, that was when the .net 1 beta
came out. The resources CD.
I'm wondering if any resources or programs or sdks that are on the dvd or cd
can still apply to 2.0...
I'm entering back into the programming field, and am trying to learn C# in
the .net 2.0 framework. after learning vb5 on my own.
I am still new to dotNET and it's framework, but am learning quickly.
I've downloaded C# Express Beta, and am playing with it to learn.

Any help is appreciated

hi James.

i habe no idea whats on the .net beta 1 'resources cd'. but most of the
stuff will be most likely superceeded by new stuff in .net 2. most programming
samples should work though, there haven't been a lof of changes to
the available classes.

considering the fact that the sdk is a free download, you'll surely be better
of using the tools from the .net 2 beta sdk :-)

I have the disc, but do not remember exactly what is on it. The official word
is 1.1 assemblies will work in 2.0 (may not be as fast, due to new compiler
tricks, but they will work). 1.0 assemblies may or may not, as there are some
breaking changes (primarily in XML).

Going back to beta 1 of 1.0 (the original .NET release), there are tons of
breaking changes. For example, the namespace is System.Data.ADO not
System.Data.OleDb; all code with data access will break, even in the released
product Visual Studio .NET.

Well, I'm just asking because I'm new to the .net and not sure what I can
do.
Still learning.
