hi Mendak and Besoup,

Thanks for your suggestions.

I shall have a look at the tutorials and would also like to have a book. Do you think it is a good idea to switch to VS 2008 or is it still in its initial beta stage because if it is worthed I might as well buy the book with ASP 3.5 framework.

Mendak. I m sure other agree with you that the code-behind way is better. Was looking at the WRox books and they have just released a book

There's no review yet so has anyone had a look at it please. I need one to start from scratch so that I follow well and it definietely has to be with a code-behind instructions.

If there's a better WRox book for C sharp and vb.net can someone please tell me.
