VB.NET For Dummies? Lol
Seriously though if you know VB6 you could probably pick it up from reading the articles that popup on install from MSDN. If not there are some very good books, incl Practical VB.NET which I use the most. It's a couple of years old now, but the only real change in .NET 05 as far as VB is concerned is the My namespace and a few pointer/data shifting operators (<* and >*)

VB is a widely use language, there are hundreds of sites that you could learn off of and not have to spend any money. The msdn is also a very good resource for figuring stuff out.

I agree... tutorials and trial N error is how I learned.

Trial and error was patented by me four years back when I started learning C. You owe me, bitch.
