  It provides the easiest way for Java-language developers to take advantage of benefits in the .NET Framework. Visual J#.NET includes technology that enables users to migrate their Java-language investments to the .NET Framework, which will also to enable them to interoperate with other Microsoft .NET-connected languages and applications, and incorporate .NET functionality such as ASP.NET, ADO.NET, Windows Forms etc.

  And to answer your question related to applets, J# Browser Controls provide developers with a way to migrate their existing Java applet source code to run within the context of the Microsoft .NET Framework.

  Thanks for the description.
  
  Does .NET produces anything close to applet   That is, something that will run at client side   ASP.NET seems to just produce static pages.
  
  Thanks

  Hi
  
  Yes. Java Browser Controls is a way to migrate your existing applet source code, to make it run within the context of the Microsoft .NET Framework. And Yes !! , Java Browser Controls run on the client.
  
  Visual J# 2005 or Visual J# Version 2.0 Redistributable Package have support for JBC along with them. So no seperate product is required.
  
  Thanks
