I have NEVER understood why any company would choose ASP or ASP.Net over PHP. It's proprietory, unstable (unless written exactly as they expect you too) and it costs a shed load of money to setup your servers appropriately. Even Tomcat's better than ASP - grrr.

As I've always said, there's programming, scripting, and then there's [visual] basic.

Anyway - yeah, I'm sure you'll have no problems picking up the basics. ASP is incredibly straight-forward - database access is simple and there are a thousand and one tutorials on the net for it. It's a little less obvious with .NET, but you've already got an example of that I guess - so meh.

I guess as long as you know how to do the usual 'insert / update / delete' requests, with corresponding forms for the actions, I would imagine that's all they would expect you to actually KNOW. I mean, anything else you would usually code, you'd at least have MSDN next to you as a function reference.
