Those earlier suggestions from and form a solid foundation: combine a focused book with hands‑on tutorials and forum support. For the VB.NET 2005 / ASP.NET Web Forms stack, a clear, ordered approach produces the fastest gains—start with language fundamentals, move to object‑oriented patterns, practice small console/WinForms apps, then tackle Web Forms core concepts (page lifecycle, server controls, postback/state), finish with data access, validation, security and deployment. The one‑topic‑a‑day rhythm noted by is a sustainable pace.

A compact study checklist to follow in sequence: language basics (types, control flow, procedures, exceptions), OOP (classes, properties, interfaces, inheritance), .NET fundamentals (assemblies, namespaces), Web Forms specifics (Page_Load vs IsPostBack, AutoEventWireup, naming containers, ViewState implications), data (ADO.NET patterns and parameterized commands; keep connection strings in web.config), validation & authentication, debugging and deployment. Build a minimal CRUD sample and iterate: add validation, then logging and breakpoints to see runtime behavior.

A tiny, practical example of a Web Forms button handler showing event wiring and basic output encoding:

Protected Sub btnGreet_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles btnGreet.Click
    lblMessage.Text = "Hello, " & Server.HtmlEncode(txtName.Text)
End Sub

Troubleshooting notes and common pitfalls: mismatched control IDs or naming containers causing NullReferenceExceptions; lifecycle misunderstandings that hide events; large ViewState causing slow pages; forgetting to parameterize SQL (risk of injection); leaving debug/trace enabled in production. For long‑term career value, Web Forms remains important for legacy maintenance, while learning more recent .NET web patterns complements and future‑proofs skills. Appreciation to and for the resource directions first shared in this thread.

Here are a few excellent sites with FREE training and reference that I have found to get myself going using VB to design ASP.NET web pages (with previous HTML & CSS experience already under my belt):

Essential ASP.NET: http://www.microsoft.com/events/series/essentialaspnet.mspx

MSDN WebCasts by Fritz Onion:

Free Visual Studio 2005 CBT from Microsoft (elearning):

ASP.NET Free tutorials: http://www.asp.net/Tutorials/quickstart.aspx

Excellent web standards tutorials (including topics on ASP & dotNET): http://www.w3schools.com/

Also, the the built-in tutorials and walk-throughs that are installed with Visual Studio by default can be a bit complicated, but are very extensive and useful if you have the time to go through them.

Hope everyone finds these links useful!
