Programming Areas of Knowledge...

[Goksly]

Hello... Im wondering if anyone has a check list of knowledge that companies might be interested in. Obviously there is the core knowledge that looks at the basics like general programming, win forms, events and delegates etc etc... but can someone list some of the other areas. Examples would be maybe ADO.net, ATL, COM, GUI and shell programming etc.

Im basically finishing uni soon and want to focus on areas that are the most.... profitable to myself and attractive to possible employers...

Thanks in advance :}

Certainly a good start - thank you for the link!
The languages I like (in order of pref) are C#, C++ and then Java.... but I'm trying to find out the subsections of each... such as ATL/COM programming etc... dont think im being terribly clear so apologies for that :}

In my original post I was refering to them as the "core" of C#.... I know about events, win forms and delegates.... thus C# is on my CV and not things like COM/ASP.Net/ADO.Net -> items which (imo) are not core C# stuff, but more of an addition (or can be used with). I thought that was pretty clear.

Im not really after languages as such, more of the seperate areas.... from some of the jobs ive seen some prefer web based (ASP.Net), some like database orientated people (ADO.Net) and others ask for things like COM programming etc.
Was just asking for a breakdown of the .Net framework as well as stuff like C++ -> core areas that will make me an find employment easier.
