    The link to the Absolute Beginner's videos on my VSExpress Start page changed to: http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/default.aspx, so I was glad to find your post with the correct URL. I hope that was just an error on the redirect from go.microsoft.com...

    Anyway, Thanks!

    I agree. People should watch these, before trying a project way out of their current abilities. Not done them all yet, but they seem pretty good.
