The RER and the Metro. I thought it was the same thing. Can my one littel green ticket get me on both? What about the busses? If I buy my carnet or my "orange" ticket, will they get me around the city above and below ground? What is the RATP then? HELP!
The two systems are cleanly integrated and you can move from one system to the other at stations where they join. Generally the RER trains will be deeper underground than the Metro in central Paris but travel on the surface as you approach the city limits of Paris proper and enter the suburbs.
Tickets work on the RER, the Metro, and the bus system. The RER is sort of a faster metro train that has fewer stops and goes to the suburbs. You usually have to insert your ticket to exit the RER, so make sure you buy one for the right areas.
I prefer the bus system, just because I like to see around me, what I'm passing, where I'm going, looking at the people on the streets and in the shop windows that we pass. A carte orange works on buses as well as the Metro and the RER, but you have to make sure of the zones that you buy it for.

you can use your tickets or get a carte orange in the metro, rer, bus and suburban trains.
When you get to Paris, ask at any ticket counter for a map in english and you'll get on it all the info.
The rer is a long distance metro.
The guy below gave you the wrong definition since what he described is suburban trains.
