Ärende: Re: IDE market consolidates some more...?
=================================================
I used the free one that came with SunOne, can't remember the name of it now.

Looks like there will be some Java pieces to our new enterprise system but a
lot will be in .Net.  To the extent I am doing anything other than the database
(which is a question mark since I will have to do all the database design and
write all the stored procedures) I think I would like to use C#.  I didn't like
Java very much, but OTOH don't want to go to VB.Net because I want to keep my
VB6 chops since it is a great language for doing stuff really fast.
