    Advice on Platform

    I'm being offered a project for a pharmaceutical company to keep track of
    their sales/purchases/stocks online (web/internet). I want advice about the
    best development platform for this. I'm comfortable with VB6 but that alone
    is not enough to develop web applications besides I want to learn VB.NET. So
    what should I use? VB.NET with ASP? XML? I'll probably have SQL Server at
    the backend.

    What is the most efficent combination. Or can I do it with a single tool?

      You can write ASP.NET in C# of VB.NET. If you know VB6, you have a lot to
      learn in .NET, but at least syntax is familiar. SQL Server is certainly a
      good choice and it's very easy to learn. ASP/XML/VB.NET are all
      complimentary technologies not mutually exclusive ones. I use all three in
      one of my apps.

      Check out www.dotnetjunkies.com I think it'll help you.

      Cheers,

      Bill

          get one of the ASP.NET starter kits.
          ASP.NET Core, an open-source web development framework | .NET
          http://www.asp.net/Default.aspx?tabindex=9&tabid=47
