there are some starter kits on the www.asp.net site, that might be a good
start.
Otherwise (and I dont mean this to sound bad) but you may be jumping in over
your head. Sounds like you may need to start with the basics. A good "lean
how to" book may be in order. Sam's has some decent "learn (x) in (y) days"
books... that may be the way to start.

Do yourself a biug favor. Get and use Visual Studio 2005 and ASP.NET 2.0 now
in beta which will be RTM November 7th. The 2.0 release is much easier to
understand and use than earlier releases. I agree you should start with the
QuickStarts [1].
I don't recommend VB.NET. I Recommend C# because it and JavaScript are
nearly exactly alike so when you learn one language you learn two for one.
Plus when you are really good at this in twelve years or so ;-) you will be
able to read and understand Java.
If you need help with learning a language the best source are real textbooks
from publishers such as Deitel and Deitel whose textbooks are used in many
schools.
When you do the QuickStarts you want to look at MasterPages and the TreeView
control both of which will be used to build the page layout you want.

Menus are hard. Don't start with them.
Follow the ASP.NET tutorials, starting with Hello World. Learn the
difference between client and server. Learn the basics of CGI
programming. If you don't get it in a hurry, then get out.
This stuff is not for everyone, and you've already tipped your hand in
a big way that maybe you're not cut out for it. The guys that make it
in this industry are big on figuring things out for themselves. You've
tried basically nothing, read no tutorials, and come straight to us
asking for handholding. If this is typical behavior for you, then
you're going to have a tough road ahead.
