the aspx pages and C# in some of my custom classes. Both languages use
the same framework in the end so the differences lie mostly in syntax. In
other words, use what you know. You can easily compile assemblies from
both languages into the same solution so if you find a code snippet in either
language you can use it as is without conversion.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
