| I am currently evaluating WebSphere MQ 7.0 using .NET 2.0 & C# . I want to build a message router which will basically route messages to different applications that will process these MQ Messages. Do i have to build this like a service or does Websphere MQ or some other tool provide this kind of feature ? |

Routing based on what?  If it is content based routing, WMQ alone can't cater to your need. You will have to use WMB.

Maybe, depending on the requirement, WMB may be overkill but it could be used, along with many other products  |

WMB is always a good answer to any connectivity question... 
It may not be strictly necessary in this particular situation - proper use of MQ name resolution and good solid infrastructure design may be sufficient to cover the functional requirements. But WMB can add a significant amount of value in any kind of messaging infrastructure, and can make it easy and convenient to meet a large number of non-functional requirements. |

| I am interested in Content Based Routing. Since I am new to MQ Series, can you let me know what is WMB and where can i find literature to get started |

Here's a free open source project called: Message Router.
http://www.capitalware.biz/mrtr_overview.html
It is written in C. I have used it on Unix, Linux, Windows and z/OS and it does a good job of basic routing.
I also have another version written in Java (same design) that I have not made available online.
