What i want to know. Which is best way to do work in Asp.Net.
Example---Should i create TextBox in source code or put it from toolbox to page in design view.:)
 
Use Design View/visual designer when you can, that's the "Visual" in "Visual Basic" (and "Visual Studio"), and "Basic" is the basic code you need in addition :)
 
Designer almost worthless

Coming from an almost completely visual environment (in another completely different technology) I was very excited about doing ASP.NET visually...until I saw it in action. At least in VS2005 it was almost worthless, and sometimes worse, unless you're doing the most simplistic things. I was really bummed.

Don't forget, you can have the aspx code open then drag and drop things from the toolbox. Intellisense for all the attributes works great.
