BF2S Forums anyone using visual web developer 2012?

no big difference you will see; im still on 2010 since biztalk is pretty much fused to the version of vs

what version of the framework you use?

edit; i have 4 installed, 3.51 for 2008 express

i am in school, using 2008 working on taking 98-363: Web Dev Fundamentals. The 'official' book uses examples in 2008, the online tuts are in 2010, and i was just notified i could get 2012 express with my student email.

Thanks for your input, i just noticed the videos were using 2010 where the book used 2008 (i've installed the express ed. along with SQL express).

i'm pretty sure the exam covers 2008, but i'll be pissed if there's 2012 stuff on there . . .

there is a 2012 sql express

i passed my MTA for C#. barely. 100% on client side technology, barely passing programming/data retrieval. at least now i know where my strengths are . . .

i just learned a developer was pushing code without publishing.

wouldn't that be lost in the next publish, or am i missing something?

i passed my database designer course. that opened up SQL Server as a d/l for me, and my question is - is M$SQL the platform that i want for a db? i already have MySQL, and it seems to do everything i need without the proprietary B$ and it's installed.

thoughts? insights? musings?

If you are just doing basic ansi sql stuff it doesn't matter. MySQL is proprietary as well, its just free. If I had to pay for Sql Server I would most likely end up using MySql anyway.
