You can either take these lessons on-line from the MSDN web page, or you can download them to your computer, so you don’t need to be connected during your study time.
Besides the lessons, the course offers this additional material to enrich the learning experience. The purpose of the Additional Material is to put together some helpful information about Toolbars and Menus in one document, and ASP.NET basics in another. When you download and install this additional material, one new folder named “Absolute Beginner’s Series VWD Additional Material” will be created with the following three files:
1. “Cheat Sheet – ASPNET Basics.pdf”, a 2 pages PDF document;
2. “Cheat Sheet - VWD Toolbar and Menus.pdf”, a single page PDF document;
3. “EULA.ftr”, a Rich Text Format document containing license information;
These Cheat Sheets are ready-to-print documents, so if you print them, they’ll become into a handy tool to have on the desk when you take the lessons. You will be able to quickly refer to them for help at any time.
