Hi,

Do you consider CSHARP as THE language to be used for an ASP to .Net
migration project.

ASP .Net seems a "natural" choice but as .Net is "language neutral"
and CSHARP is positioned as THE native language
we are requesting some help/advice.

Hi Jean,

You need to first study a bit about the migration process.
".NET" is platform independent, as the compiler produces an intermediate
language which is later converted to the machine's native code.
And if I am getting you right, "language neutral" would mean that a
class/module written in one .NET language can be used in an application
written in another .NET language.

For making web applications in .NET, you would anyways need any of the .NET
programming languages, either VB.NET or C#.

Please look here for details on the ASP to ASP.NET migration.

HTH,

I would say go for the C# because it is a language build up from scratch for
..NET and does not have the burden of backwards compatibility. Also it is
very easy to learn and use. Compiles lightning fast too.

And to add, it is unlikely that VB.NET would be perted to Mac and Linux, but
C# already exist for Linux, check out "Mono".
