Isn't one of the first "best practices" suggestions to be explicit? I know I put all my access mods out. Helps when you do VB.NET and C# at the same time.

Yes it is.

Having done the transition myself, I agree with Sander and would myself have posted his first link.

C# in Depth - C# in Depth: About this site, and C# in Depth[^]
Porting from VB.Net to C# isn't hard, but maybe you might want to find an easier book to help you on that road.
Once you begin to feel comfortable with C#, the C# in Depth book is a bible worth keeping.

Thanks to everyone with their recommendations.
I did acquire a kindle version of Rob Miles' book in the end and have also ordered a copy of C# 6.0 and the .NET 4.6 Framework to be getting on with.
To ease me in, I have a number of small VB.net projects which I am going to rewrite in C# as I think this will be a good way to get familiar with the syntax.
Thanks again for you help - and happy holidays!

I found "The C# programming language" (by A.Hejlsberg - the lead architect of C#) very readable and useful because of short examples. 've been reading version 2.0, though ...

Proficiency in one means proficiency in other (assuming you didn't "learn" VB.NET by assuming it is same as VB).
If you really learned OOP with .NET, it is irrelevant which of the two you use. I prefer VB.NET, but can (and do) work in C# with occasional google reminder of proper syntax.

We are in 2016... 1900 is 116 years ago meaning that you are 128 years old if you start programming at 12.

Haha!  "1900 and frozen to death" is an expression meaning so far back in time than I care to remember!

that when it comes to end users, the only consistency you can expect is that there will never be any consistency in how it's used.

Nish used to post a far better version of this song. Here it is: 12 Days of Christmas - YouTube[^].
Looks like I messed up the URL earlier.
