1st time user to VB.Net

[fenwah]

I've been programming in VB 4-6 now for quite some time. I just loaded .NET on my machine. I was asked to take a look at creating a new web site with an Oracle connection to a database that would run queries.

Would ASP.NET be a good choice for this? Also, when i tried to create a new ASP.NET Web Application, it appears that I need to have a web server created in order to build any projects. Is this correct?

Any insight and/or information would be greatly appreciated.

Try .Net with VB and go to asp.net website for quickstart tutorials.
You need to add IIS in Add/Remove programs/Windows components.
I think .Net is fantastic for website creation.
