Another ASP.NET 2.0 Starter Kit hits the scenes. This one is an online store starter kit that supports PayPal Website Payments Standard and Pro as the payment engine.
Looks as though it uses the Provider Model pretty heavily according to a forum message. It uses SQL Server Express, but there are some SQL Server 2005 upsizer scripts if you don't want to use SQL Server Express. I think I even see some CodeSmith templates in there to help with generating code for Microsoft DAAB and Stored Procedures. By the way, all the source code is in C# and I am sure they would love someone to port it to VB.
No better way to learn then looking through other people's code ;)
Some marketing stuff from the website:
