Are you new to programming in general or just .NET? If you are familiar with programming in general (C/C++, Java, etc) then you should have no problem jumping into .NET, especially C# as you will find the syntax very familiar, and can probably transfer source code you already have over directly.

If you are completely new you can try googling C# tutorials (replace C# with VB, or F#, or whatever your favorite implementation is) to get a large list of good tutorials. You can also get good help from msdn, CodeProject, CodePlex and get most of your questions answered here as well.

Good luck!

Basically. Get moving :) nothing is going to teach you more than just getting started.... Download Studio Express. http://www.microsoft.com/express/Windows/ This will allow you to start coding.. Just Create your first page. and start putting code in the code behind...

Start here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/beginner/default.aspx

There are resources no matter what your current skill level. (Don't be afraid to try the Kids Corner if you're REALLY new to programming.)

Also, it's a very good idea to find a mentor.

And if you're going to go with books, my personal preference is the WROX series. Less error-prone than others, easier to uunderstand. They just "gety it right."

It's a big area: .NET Framework Learning Topics

Define your requirements to narrow down the appropriate technologies.

As for the toolchain, a good way to get started is to download and install Microsoft's free Visual Studio Express.

Go buy one of the Murach books on .NET.

Copy down each example and build each example. Get your muscle memory going.

I'd highly recommend learning C#, since you will most likely make more money and have more job opportunities with it.

Download an open source project like Dot Net Nuke, or BlogEngine.NET.

Set a breakpoint on page_load and build. STep through the entire site, and see the code.
