Is the source included in the .net framework?
I downloaded that last night but haven't installed it yet as it 
suggested I update my MDAC to 2.7 and install MS Internet Information 
Services.

I never realised that the C# command line compiler came with the .net 
framework for free.  
I have been given 2 and a bit weeks to learn C# and Visual Studio.NET!
Just at a guess I think I'm in a bit of trouble!

First impressions seem to indicate C# is a much simplier beast to tame
than C++ ... maybe Microsoft have seen Euphoria and want to compete
with the simple syntax and small learning curve of Euphoria!  :)
