What is a .NET component? .NET components are pre-built pieces of software that you can re-use within the Microsoft .NET Framework (pronounced dot net framework) to help you create your application faster and hopefully with fewer bugs. By re-using .NET software components you not only save time and money, but you also get the opportunity to use other people's expertise and knowledge that will give your app extra functionality and features - fast. In this filtered view of our product catalog you will only find .NET compatible products, these products include both .NET Components and .NET Controls as .NET downloads for you to try and buy.
What is a .NET Control? A .NET Control has a visual aspect and can be used on a form or Web page to control the behavior of the user interface, so the user of the app can use a .NET UI Control to: enter data, click on a button, select from items displayed on a drop down list, draw a chart or graph based on data that they have entered into a .NET datagrid control etc.
What is the difference between a .NET Component and a .NET Control?
A .NET Component does not always have to have a visual interface, for example a .NET Component could work behind the scenes on a server and be used to calculate the tax due on an invoice for goods sold to a customer or to create a PDF version of that invoice and then email it to the customer's email address. .NET Controls are User Interface (UI) controls and they are a subset of .NET Components and as such all .NET Controls are therefore .NET Components, however, the reverse is not true, a .NET Component is not also a .NET Control, as a .NET Component does not have to have a visual or visible interface and it does not have to appear on a Windows form, Web Form or Web page as part of the UI.
In this .NET Components marketplace you will find both .NET Controls and .NET Components - available as commercial grade, quality .NET software component products.

Microsoft Visual Basic .NET (MS VB.NET) allows VB.NET programmers to create Windows applications for their end users fast. VB.NET developers can extend the standard functionality available inside the VB.NET IDE with a variety of VB.NET add-ins and VB.NET tools. The extensibility of VB.NET software is one of the main reasons it has proved to be so popular with .NET developers, as Visual Basic software engineers can find VB.NET downloads from other companies or other developers to act as a VB.NET extension to their VB.NET IDE.
The versatility of VB.NET also extends to various forms of VB.NET software components. VB.NET controls can be used to create feature rich VB.NET user interfaces on forms and Web pages for VB.NET apps. These VB.NET UI controls are augmented by non-visual VB.NET components or VB.NET libraries that can help a developer add many hidden features in VB.NET applications running in the background. These non-visual components are commonly available as a VB.NET library, VB.NET Class library or as a VB.NET component.
An example of a visual VB.NET control is Janus GridEx for .NET, a VB.NET WinForm control that allows you to create an MS Outlook style or look and feel to your latest VB.NET project. A non-visual VB.NET component example is a Visual Basic compatible product that allows you to transfer files over the Internet via HTTP or FTP protocols, or to add further security by using the HTTPS protocol for transferring files in your VB.NET app.
The VB.NET software products listed in this VB.NET product gallery will allow you to save a lot of time and effort in creating your new VB.NET app. Whether you are looking for a VB.NET plug-in or VB.NET utility, or you are looking for a VB.NET control or a VB.NET component, you will be able to find a wide variety of VB.NET tools to help you finish your project faster. Many of the products listed here have free VB.NET trials available as a VB.NET download from our VB.NET marketplace.
