Windows Workflow Foundation is an addition to the WinFx Software Development Kit designed to allow any application to add workflow functionality. Microsoft expects workflow to be one of the next hottest topics within application design and development. This book helps readers who are just beginning their workflow design efforts with WF. All code samples are presented in both VB.NET and C# using Visual Studio 2005. This includes a sample ASP.NET application written in VB.NET that uses workflow and the Windows Workflow Foundation along with a windows application written in C# that uses the same workflow.
