What about the O' Reilly Safari thing? I've used it - very good. Only stopped as I eventually bought the books I liked.

I chose "Professional C#" when I was learning .NET and didn't regret it - check the reviews if you still need another book.

You could try the Exam Cram series - that way, you get a certification at the end of it too!

problem with that is that my current knowledge of VB .NET is patchy to say the least.

I can program stuff but I have to look up almost everything and then 2 weeks after finishing it I find a .NET class that would have done 90% of the work

I'll get through that first book then start looking at more advanced books

I've got the Apress book, "Pro ASP.NET 2.0 in C# 2005" and the O'Reilly "Programming C#" for reference material. There's so much information available online that I didn't feel the need for anything else (I didn't need VB but I think Apress do an equivalent book for it).

The ASP.NET FAQ is a good site (http://www.syncfusion.com/FAQ/aspnet/Default.aspx), as is the MSDN reference.
