asking for ASP.net and vb
i was planning to develop an e-learning web site.
As far as i know, that most people using asp.net and together with vb.net.
I planned to use asp.net and vb (vb 6.0..normal) as my application.
is it a good idea of implementing that kind of stuff?
(using asp.net + vb **not asp.net with vb.net**)
thank you

You can't use VB6 with .NET VB6 does NOT meat the requirements of the CLR (common language run-time) Making vb.net NON backward compatible with VB6 was a deliberate move by Microsoft.
You could wrapper up VB6 into a COM component .NET has ways of inter-operating with COM. But you would not want to do that with a new web-site, you would only do this if you had legacy VB6 code library that was worth alot of investment to your company.
I would argue that most people are using asp.net and c# rather than vb.net (judging by the amount of .NET code snippets I find on the web which are nearly always c#)
vb.net is vastly superior to vb6.
