Wonko's .NET Voyage of Discovery

My first VB.NET application!

Ok, so it's a bit lame but it's my first VB.NET application and I made it all by myself (with a little help from Ged's cSFX class to make it play a wav file).

The application is a simple stopwatch and alarm. It's all self-explanatory, no instructions needed.

You can run it from here and download it from here.

Visual Studio .NET 2005 BETA

I signed up to the Visual Studio .NET 2005 BETA at Microsoft a few weeks ago and they sent me a lovely DVD and some literature. Not got round to installing it yet though. I might get round to it this weekend.

As I'm still a .NET virgin, is starting with the current version of VB.NET I have now going to hold me back when 2005 becomes common place?

Finally ... I am going to learn .NET

I've had a book on vb.net sitting here for over 3 months now and not got past the first few pages. Having trawled the active topic list on vbCity for what feels like the millionth time without turning up a vb.old question to answer I have come to the conclusion that I've got no choice but to learn vb.net. So I am. Wish me luck.
