This discussion has been had over and over again on these groups. If
you search these groups, you should be able to find many comments. The
majority of them seem to indicate that it is better to learn the
classes of the .Net framework and not necessarily a specific
programming language.
Generally speaking, VB.Net and C# are equivalent in terms of features.
There are a few syntax niceties in C# that don't exist in VB.Net and
vice versa. C# has the ability to work with unsafe code which is
normally not needed, although there are some specific tasks for which
it is suited. I write primarily business apps so I have never had to
use unsafe code.
If you can learn both languages, do, otherwise, pick the one whose
syntax seems easier to you. Once you know the .Net framework, language
will matter little.
