The .NET Framework is an environment for building, deploying, and running Web Services and other applications. It consists of three main parts: the Common Language Runtime, the Framework classes, and ASP.NET. GotDotNet

Do you know where I got that from? Google! By inserting your "what is .net framework". That definition what the first thing that came up! I been it took later to register to this forum then for me to find your answer using google!

The Microsoft .NET Framework is a software component that can be added to or is included with the Microsoft Windows operating system. It provides a large body of pre-coded solutions to common program requirements, and manages the execution of programs written specifically for the framework. The .NET Framework is a key Microsoft offering, and is intended to be used by most new applications created for the Windows platform.

The pre-coded solutions that form the framework's class library cover a large range of programming needs in areas including: user interface, data access, database connectivity, cryptography, web application development, numeric algorithms, and network communications. The functions of the class library are used by programmers who combine them with their own code to produce applications.

Programs written for the .NET Framework execute in a software environment that manages the program's runtime requirements. This runtime environment, which is also a part of the .NET Framework, is known as the Common Language Runtime (CLR). The CLR provides the appearance of an application virtual machine, so that programmers need not consider the capabilities of the specific CPU that will execute the program. The CLR also provides other important services such as security mechanisms, memory management, and exception handling. The class library and the CLR together compose the .NET Framework. The framework is intended to make it easier to develop computer applications and to reduce the vulnerability of applications and computers to security threats.

There is a chunk of text from a wiki... hope that helps.

This forum seems pretty cool - he probably registered because he was kule!

In short, the .NET framework is something that some dude at Microsoft decided to create to make programming eas(ier) (i.e. it was always pretty easy). That's all you need to know to be able to start programming in it.

VB.NET is probably the best place to start as it's the easiest and it's where I started and you can also use it to do cool things with excel and other office applications!

Hi,

The .NET Framework 2.0

.Net framework is a environment for developing and running both services and applications, for different devices. We can develop windows based applications, distributed applications, web applications, server components and web services. These applications can be run on computers, wrist watches, mobile phones and hand held computers which have the .Net framework installed.

For developing applications on the .Net framework, the Class libraries of the .Net framework are provided. For running these applications developed on the .Net framework, the CLR - Common Language Runtime is used. An additional set of components provided by .Net framework, is the Presentation layer components. These include the windows forms, web forms, and console applications.

Components of the .NET Frame work 2.0

The components of the .Net framework consist of a collection of services and classes. These components exist as a layer between .Net applications and the underlying operating system.

The .Net framework consists of :

• ASP.Net.
• Windows forms.
• Console application Services.
• .Net framework base classes.
• Common language runtime.
