I'm a college student going for a degree in Computer Information Systems. I know absolutely nothing about it except that I enjoy anything to do with a computer but as far as the programs used, etc., I'm still clueless at this point. I've only had one course (C++ programming with Visual Basic 2008) so far to do with my degree so I'm very new still. In my spare time, I'm looking to gain any experience I can to do with my major and anything that can help me in the long run land a job. I've been checking out job offers on Monster.com, etc. to see what employers are looking for and I've noticed several asking for a high level experience using Microsoft.Net and, I believe, ASP.Net. Now, I don't know what either of those programs are, but I searched around a bit and found advice saying to download the express version of Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 and to dig in... Find tutorials, videos, maybe a book or two, etc. My question is, I already have Visual Basic 2008 express edition (Visual C++ 9.0) from my previous course. Is the program I'm being referred to download not the same one I already have, just a newer version? I apologize for what may seem to be a really stupid question to anyone with experience, but I'm just trying to figure it all out.
Thanks in advance, Kristy
