1.What is the difference between ASP.Net and VB.Net?
2.Pls explain abt Assembly.

An assembly is the primary building block of a .NET Framework application. It is a collection of functionality that is built, versioned, and deployed as a single implementation unit (as one or more files). All managed types and resources are marked either as accessible only within their implementation unit, or as accessible by code outside that unit.

Assemblies are self-describing by means of their manifest, which is an integral part of every assembly. The manifest:

* Establishes the assembly identity (in the form of a text name), version, culture, and digital signature (if the assembly is to be shared across applications).
* Defines what files (by name and file hash) make up the assembly implementation.
* Specifies the types and resources that make up the assembly, including which are exported from the assembly.
* Itemizes the compile-time dependencies on other assemblies.
* Specifies the set of permissions required for the assembly to run properly.
* This information is used at run time to resolve references, enforce version binding policy, and validate the integrity of loaded assemblies. The runtime can determine and locate the assembly for any running object, since every type is loaded in the context of an assembly. Assemblies are also the unit at which code access security permissions are applied. The identity evidence for each assembly is considered separately when determining what permissions to grant the code it contains.

HI,
ASP.NET is TECHNOLOGy
VB.NET is LANGUAGE

c#,C++,j#,vb.net...languages supports ASP.NET

ASSEMBLY:
Assembly is a collection of files
1) private assembly
2) shared assembly

we can build private assembly and we can use that assembly in application
but we need to follow some rules to create shared assembly
it should be strong name, means unique name and we have to place shared assembly in
GAC and we can use this shared assembly in any application

asp.net is simple a library that makes it easy for you to create web applications that run against the .NET runtime (similar to the java runtime).

vb.net is a language that compiles against the common language runtime, like C#. Any .NET compliant language can use the asp.net libraries to create web applications.

Assemblies
Assembly is unit of deployment like EXE or a DLL.An assembly consists of one or more files (dlls, exe’s, html files etc.), and
represents a group of resources, type definitions, and implementations of those
types. An assembly may also contain references to other assemblies.An assembly is completely self-describing.An assembly contains metadata
information, which is used by the CLR for everything from type checking and
security to actually invoking the components methods.Multiple versions can be deployed side by side in different folders
