This is the first of a series of video tutorials for people that are getting started with Visual Studio. We will focus on the express editions. The series will demonstrate how easy it is to get started. In this first video, we will just show you how to install Visual Studio Express Edition 2005 for Visual Basic. To see the video in full-screen mode, click on the heading for the tutorial.

If you really want to learn the details, I highly recommend the video series from Learn Visual Studio - you can even save 30% off the retail price by clicking on the link in this sentence. It is one of the best resources I have found for learning Visual Studio, and you get to try out a number of videos for free - no strings attached. I personally have a Lifetime Subscription to Learn Visual Studio and have spent 100s of hours watching their videos. Most video tutorials for Visual Studio cost around $25 per hour (see AppDev.com, Learnkey.com, etc.), but Learn Visual Studio only costs about 70 cents per hour of video.

The hands-down best hosting company for dotNET applications that I have found is DiscountASP. They make it easy to connect a database to your website and provide excellent support for ASP.NET applications. DiscountASP has been ranked number one for hosting dotNET applications for three years in a row by Readers Choice, and it is obvious why that is so when you compare the services they offer to what is being offered by other hosting companies. Once you seen how hard it is to update your tables with GoDaddy or some of the other hosting companies, you will know why DiscountASP is the best.
