Not sure that this is a valid programming question … but is it possible to program infa red using vb.net express (iRDA) Got a programming project in my mind, but none of the coding examples work, IrDAClient never gets recognised

It’s a valid question but it needs to be a bit more specific. VB.Net can certainly be used to program against IRDA. There is nothing preventing you from using IrDAClient with VB.Net.
We do need to know though what problems you are having? Can you post the samples that are giving you trouble or tell us what errors you are seeing?
EDIT Update to comments
There is nothing that will prevent you from writing a program targeting IRDA from VB Express. What you appear to be missing is a reference to the DLL that contains the IrDA libraries. You’ll neeed to add a reference to System.Net.Irda.dll. It will be in the following directory (assuming your programming to Windows CE)
EDIT2
I may be wrong about the ability of VB express to program against a device project. I don’t have any 2008 express builds on my machine to verify right now.
