The comment about needing a MS entry on a resume for
.Net prior to June 2000 isn't entirely true (but
mostly). If you were lucky enough to work on a project
for one of the MS Elite level partners (I think there
were 9 of those companies at the time), you could have
been exposed to .Net prior to June, 2000. How do I know?
I worked on a project for one of those companies
(Merck). It sure helps to if your company's CEO is on
the board of directors for MS.

well what about this one:
Microsoft Quick C V1.0
anyone recall date for that one??
MS Access 1.0 ??
There was another notable MS product, we sharpened our
teeth with - SQL Server (1991 with the joint MS/Sybase
Server). Soon after that came ODBC which I think proved
just as important as ActiveX, etc.
Well, some of us non-Microsofties *do* have 4 years'
experience with .NET, or close enough, anyway. My first
exposure to .NET and ASP.NET (when it was still called
NGWS and ASP+) was in May of 2000. I thought I was being
clever when I registered the domain name aspplusguy.com.
Little did I know how quickly it would be obsolete. :-)
I am adding some reference to MS Elite level partners,
NGWS, and ASP+ and will make an entry for SQL Server.
Thanks!
