VB.NET Technical Info?

Author	Message
Rich Albert #1 / 4	VB.NET Technical Info? Is there any web pages out there that deal with the real features/abilities of VB.NET Standard as a product? I'm interested in stuff like: - Is Crystal Reports bundled with it? - Are Jet and/or MSDE included? - What, specifically is InstallShielf Express I read about, and is this included? - General info on how VB apps are deployed. For example, the .NET framework obviously needs to be installed, but what other things need to exist on the target machine? Which operating systems are supported? Do machines that will run VB apps need separate licenses of a run-time something? I've called Microsoft with no results, and microsoft.com only has boring, useless marketing junk. Help! - Rich Alberth

Rino #2 / 4	VB.NET Technical Info? -Crystal Reports not included -MSDE is included -don't know about JET and InstallShield Also: -Cannot create your own Class, Web and Windows Control Libraries. (This is the greatest shortcoming, in my opinion) -VB.NET standard only works with the desktop version of SQL Server AFAIK, target machines need the framework only (which is free) Rino Quote: >-----Original Message----- >Is there any web pages out there that deal with the real >features/abilities of VB.NET Standard as a product? >I'm interested in stuff like: >- Is Crystal Reports bundled with it? >- Are Jet and/or MSDE included? >- What, specifically is InstallShielf Express > I read about, and is this included? >- General info on how VB apps are deployed. > For example, the .NET framework obviously needs > to be installed, but what other things need to > exist on the target machine?
