"The greatest danger for most of us is not that our aim is too high and we
miss it, but that it is too low and we reach it" (c) Michelangelo

Buy a book. Or 2 or 3. I liked "Pro C# with .Net 3.0" by Andrew Troelsen.

------------------------

Start with something you're interested in and need a solution for.
Something small, but not so small as to be trivial.  Use your needs to guide
your exploration of the .NET library - it's way too big to have much success
at learning "the whole thing".

The C# language is syntactically nearly identical to Java, and both are
derived heavily from C and C++ (syntax-wise, that is).  You should be able
to map your delphi language experience almost directly to C# with little but
syntax changes (note that mapping your delphi library knowledge is not going
to be so easy).

As others have said, I'd start with a book on C# to teach you the syntax,
the build environment, etc., and then learn the library "as you go".
