Where do I get a C# Compiler? What's Microsoft.NET?
Where do I get a C# Compiler? What's Microsoft.NET?
You can get a C# compiler as a part of the Net Framework SDK download at Microsoft.com. You can also get a ton of information there. Try it. I think it was listed in the Links in the sticky posts.

I would appreciate if you could keep your thoughts for yourself until you have at least a clue what you are talking about. Without facts to back them, your thoughts belong to the philosophy board. To help someone, you should get informed.
I'm sorry, but if you knew what you are talking about, you would see that I'm right. Downloading the Framework is the easiest way to get a commandline compiler that is producing C# programs. You need the Framework for this, you cannot download the compiler seperately.
You could also get the Visual Studio .NET Beta 2 or maybe the Release Candidate on CD or for Download. I downloaded it once, it's not fun. It's 4 CDs and Microsoft doesn't allow to download them parallel. At 10K creeping Microsoft speed, it takes days. You can order the CDs from their website for postage costs only. A nice offer. Or you can visit the MSDN devloper days ( in December in Germany, might vary for your country ) where they hand out a Release Candidate and other stuff.

so what part of framework is the compiler in?
Okay, maybe it didn't get through... There is the Microsoft .NET Framework SDK. It includes a C# commandline compiler. For the compiler to run and later to run the executables, you need the complete Framework installed.
If you can spare the money, you can get the complete Visual Studio .NET, which includes the Framework, a C#, C++ and VB compiler and integrated Editor on CD from Microsoft.

Yes but the compiler is part of the framework. Visual C#.NET is just the IDE and doesn't contain the compiler.You need the framework and the compiler.

WHAT PART OF THE FRAMEWORK IS THE COMPILER!!!!!!!!!!!!IVE ASKED THIS THREE TIMES!!!!
>nv, you idiot. You need the framework and the compiler.
>Get a life. BTW do you have a job?
Troll_King, I'm not sure I understand you... That is EXACTLY what I'm saying. You need the framework, it includes a compiler. Do you have trouble reading ?
I'm a professional programmer. It's my JOB to know this stuff.
Xterria:
*sigh* Yes, you asked three times now. You have the choice to either get it with my third answer, or not get it at all. In order to get the minimum version of a compiler you have to download it all. All. The whole Framework SDK. Complete. Each and every part of it.
