Hi Calros,

IMHO, the easiest book in my collection, and a good starting point, is

    Windows Forms Programming in C#. It's an e-book, downloadable from 
Manning Publications (for a small cost), written by E.E. Brown.
     It assumes very little and is a very easy read.

Following is a list of the other books in my C# collection in order of most 
useful.

    Core C# and .NET, Prentice Hall, Steven C.Perry
    Has some 2.0 features e.g. datagridview, understandably not found in 
other older publications
    Covers lots of useful system namespaces.

    The two O'Reilly Books "Programming C#" and "C# Cookbook" have lots of 
full source code listings.
    Sure beats code snippets that annoyingly assume prior knowledge

    Another good source for example C# source is the freely available as a 
downloadable pdf is
    "Dissecting a C# Application - Inside SharpDevelop"

    If you are interested in Mono, then
        "Mono - A developers notebook" O'Reilly, Edd Dunbill, Niel M. 
Bornstein
        "Mono Kickstart" Sams, Schonig and Geschwinde
    are small and easy reads; but lacking the dept of detail found in larger 
publications.

    Then there is the Code Project, with literally thousands of examples of 
C# source code usage.

Once you have downloaded the sdk, you can run dexplore.exe that allows you 
to browse 2.0 documentation or wincv for 1.1.
Set dexplores view to .net framework and its filter to both vb.net and C#. 
There seem to be more examples for VB that C# (based on the assumption that 
C# programmers can read VB code but perhaps not Vice Versa)

Have loaded up sharpdevelop 1 and 2, but find that, for the moment, I can 
get by with
    . snippetcompiler.exe as editor\compiler\run testing.
    . dbgclr.exe for debugging
    . astyle for a source code re-indenter
    . dexplore.exe for documentation

HTH
    Mark
