generally yes, the dot net classes seems to be a "generalized translation" of 
all the languages that dot net covers, so I can write something in vb.net and 
if need be a friend/colleague can translate it into and modify it in C#.net, so 
I guess you can consider it an underlining basis and a translator for the 
assorted languages it encompasses

which is why (I believe) they had J# in the original line up, a attempt to 
bring java under there abilities and control.

  Hi,

  Am I getting the right impression about this? From what I'm reading, you can 
pick many different languages. They all use the .Net Framework Classes. 
Therefore, it only matters which language you use if you are working in an 
environment where that language is used. For example, if you work somewhere and 
they use C# with .net, then you'd want to learn C#. If you worked or had fun 
somewhere in which they use VB.Net, then you'd want to learn that language. The 
same would apply if you wanted to use Python in the .Net environment. You could 
use Python, but you'd be able to access the classes in the .Net framework, but 
with Python. And the same would go for Cobol, assuming there is some sort of 
Cobol something that uses .Net. Is that anywhere in the ball park?

   

  Thanks.

   

  Jim
