I think Fox Pro and J++ no longer exist in Visual Studio.Net. C++, Visual Basic and C#, ASP.net are the new group. I am pretty sure I did not see Fox Pro or J++. J++ got obsoleted because Microsoft lost the law suit against Sun Microsystem 2 years ago.
Hawk,
ASP.NET is a web technology not a programming language so you shouldn't compare it with C++, C#, VB etc. (You can use these language to create a ASP.NET app.)
The Java implementation is called J#.
vbAngel,
Visual Studio is the IDE (= Integrated Development Environment), Visual Basic is a programming language.
So if I get Visual Studio, do I also get Visual Basic?Quote:

I've got visual basics 6.0 - which of the above is it's .net variant?
:confused:
I don't know which one I should get......

There is a Visual FoxPro 7.0 -- I'm not sure if this comes with VS.Net or is now a separate product.
Here is the scoop vbAngel. I am sure that you will not have a choice of Visual Studio .NET or Visual Basic .NET. Visual Basic .NET is just a language. Visual Studio .NET is the IDE you use to create Visual Basic .NET apps(or any other .NET languages). You of course do not have to have either. As long as you have the .NET framework installed, you can write your apps in any text editor and compile it with the command line compiler that comes with it. But I would not recommend this if you are fairly new to it as you will not get syntax checking, intellisense, etc. obviously.
So to answer you last question, if you were to go out and but .NET it would have to Visual Studio .NET.
If you get visual studio version 6, you will get along with it visual basic 6

One more thing tough, if studio.net is released on Feb 13, what is everybody using now when they talk about .net?
:confused:
Beta's and RC's (Release Candidates)
