Hello all,

I'm a newbie to SQL Server. I would like to practice/learn setting up web based data access. Using SQL Server 2005 and probably a sample database like AdventureWorks, I aim to create a web based interface that will allow for data access and data entry. I'm almost finished with a book about T-SQL, and I am starting to read the MS Implementation and Maintenance book, but where do I start to learn about creating the web interface? What technologies/languages are important? ADO.NET? VB.NET C#.NET?

Thanks in advance.

If you plan on using a Microsoft language, then use ADO.NET since you are talking about a web site. You'd combine it with VB.NET or C#. Which one you pick is up to you. There are people who are adamant about using one or the other, but I'd recommend looking at both and going with whichever one comes more natural to you. VB.NET came more natural to me.

Thanks. Can you give me an example of how ADO.net and VB.net would work together?
