Well, .NET coding is also capable of developing applications for mobile devices. You can do it with Visual Studio 2003 and 2005.\n\nBut both have a pretty good future. Java is NOT old and outdated. Java is still very common among (especially) cross-platform and mobile development.\n\nAnd some may argue that .NET is Windows-specific. But it turns out, they're wrong! =)\n\nThere's something called "Mono Project". It allows for cross-platform development using the .NET Framework, using languages like C# and other .NET languages. It does not, however, allow for Windows-specific libraries, such as "System.Windows.Forms" or "Microsoft.Win32". But it's still cross-platform.\n\nC# is very similar to Java. I've done a little Java. But I like C# better, since I started teaching myself and using it about 4 months ago. =)\n\nC# is VERY easy to use when developing database-driven applications. And VS 2005 comes with SQL Server 2005 Express? Yeah, that's great! =)

Hi!\nIf you are a novice developer/ hobbyist/ student .., then Visual Studio Express Editions are the best for you.\nThey are available as free downloads. Each express edition is around 35-40 MB. Get them here :\nhttp://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/default.aspx\n\nIncase you need the professional version, again you can download a 180 day trial here:\nhttp://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/products/trial/\n\nTo compare the different versions of Visual Studio, go here:\nhttp://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/products/compare/default.aspx\n\nIf you cannot download, then check out on your local .NET usergroup. Find the usergroup nearest to you here:\nhttp://apac.ineta.org/UserGroups/Browse/tabid/153/Default.aspx\nContact the UG Lead, they normally will have copies to give away.\n\nYou can also write to your local Microsoft Office to request for a free copy of the Express editions.\nhttp://www.microsoft.com/india/address.aspx

If you mean you want a desktop application with browser features then .NET Express, free until Nov, 2006 at Microsoft.  \n\nYou may find VB.NET an easier .NET language to write in and there are tons of reuseable code on VB.\n\nI use C#, I like it, it's a step up from JAVA and I can get some C++ power without the C++ freeforall that can cause code flaws, there is a ton of support for C# also.\n\nOther .NET languages you could choose are J# and C++.\n\nC++ is good when you do low level work and console apps with power.\n\nJ# is good if your into Java.\n\nAll links at eof...\n\n(** If you are on dialup do the manual download, get a free download manager like ZAP and a free ISO program like ISOBuster first, the IDE is at least 300MB, instructions are on the manual download page)\n\nAny language you choose to design in with .NET will have you creating one in less than a day.  Under 30 minutes if you know .NET already.\n\nIf you want to have a desktop application that hooks into a program on a web server and exchanges info, that's called a smart client and .NET is good for that also.\n\nJava Studio or Eclispse can be used but you'll have more work to do.\n\n.NET is the best for beginner to very advanced, the beginner version is call Express, the advances is Visual Studio Professional.\n\nNOTE:  Take the free webcasts lessons or video lessons and join the communities.  If you haven't visited Microsoft lately, you'll be pleasantly surprised at how open they are with the novice to advance programmer and how much help you'll get and alot of the free things that are offered. \n\nMany think MS means big expense to them and go with the open source tools, but they haven't checked out MS lately.  \n\nThere are also free .NET webhosts like Brinkster.\n\nEven the tools you pay for end up being cheaper than open source's cost.

I am going to presume, for now, you are talking about Visual Basic.net? Try out the free Visual Basic.net express edition compiler from Microsoft. http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/vb/ that's the site to get it.\n\nIf you are talking, however, about visual Basic 6 (or 5,4 etc.) then I don't think there are any free ones.\n\nHowever, if you are talking about a compiler for any random language, search 'the free site' .com\n\nPragmatic Python,

These are some Micosoft run time libraries that are required to run applications developed with .NET software development tools. Distributing the libraries once centrally means that the developer doesn't have to ship them with the software and they always stay up to date.\n\nThey come in two flavours 1.1 & 2.0. Both basically do the same thing but are subtly different and can co-exist happily on you PC together. Unfortunately there are the usual MS security bugs found in these products therefore windows update will auto update them as new fixes come out to make sure your PC stays secure. \n\nShould not cause any problems with the daily running of your PC.

Depending on what language you are planning on writing the program with there are some solutions outhere. If you are planning on using .Net langauage you can use Visual Studio Express or if you are looking into java you can use Java SE. Both of these I believe should be free since the last time I checked.

Yes,\n\nYou need to use the developers kit from Microsoft.

It's designed from the start to be platform-independent. Everything .NET (except implementation) is a public standard that can be used to recreate the runtime environment on any platform.

The steps to compile are the following:\n\n1) Install a compiler Visual Studio 2003 or 2005\n2) Unzip the source that you have downloaded\n3) click on the file with .sln (the solution file) which will open your Visual Studio and organize all the files nicely, ready to compile\n4) press F5.  If the solution and the MS Project is error free, you should get a debugging version of the application running and with all the source files compiled.
