Forget vb version 6 -- its obsolete because vb.net replaced it.
Don't PM me with questions -- you might get a nasty PM in response. If you have a question then post it in one of the forums.

No I can't. They aren't related, other than being .net. AFAIK asp.net is used to build web servers, the other two are used to build application programs.

ASP.NET is a technology for dynamic web pages (similar to PHP etc...)
The actual ASP.NET code can be in either a VB.NET or a C# like syntax.

C# and VB.NET are mainly used for desktop apps though. VB.NET is very similar to vb6, whereas C# is more like Java in terms of syntax. In the end though, they all produce similar end products.

And learn VB.NET, VB6 is dead.
