Would it be correct to say the VB is still the language most used for
Dot Net programming, and C# the second most used?

MS is pushing C# very very hard and trying desparately to kill off VB.
It's almost impossible to find complete help samples in VB these days.
where is the "microsoft ASP.net 2.0 core reference" from mspress in "VB" ?
very hard to find complete training source materials in VB - my personal experience

I've been using maconstate for years because MS doesn't provide the necessary
VB support.
another example is :
"Developing Microsoft ASP.NET Server Controls and Components " from MS Press
is in C#

That's really surprising to me since the VS 2005 road show did everything
in
VB.NET 2005.

VB 2005 and for classic ASP, it's VBScript.

Since this is an ASP.net newsgroup, one should assume current technology unless otherwise
specified.
hence, "VB" means "VB"
hence, "VB" means "VB.NET"

Jon Paal's referring to VB, not VB.NET...

You're contradicting yourself.
If your first statement is true, your second statement should be :hence, "VB" means "VB.NET"
It's confusing to refer to "VB.NET" as "VB", though.
"VB" is "VB" and "VB.NET" is "VB.NET"...and never the twain shall meet.
Ask any Classic VB programmer, from V1 through VB6.
They tend to be protective of their language's name and despise it if it's
confused with any other language...even if it's a later version of their own language.
Have a great day!
