Interested in learning to program C# both as a hobby and for career advancement. I have been in IT for 20 years mostly developing SQL DML objects. But I have the desire to learn to write .NET applications using VS in C#. For now, learning to write console applications as most of what I do is batch related processing. I have been working my through John Sharp`s Visual C# 2008 Step By Step (about half way through it). Today, I mostly look to SO for answers but I`d like to someday give back to this site. I`m not looking for a hand out, but rather, a hand up. ©
