Abstract

Demonstrating how to develop real-world applications using the Visual Basic language, the author covers each programming task - from designing the user interface to writing extended code modules - with clarity and supported by clear examples. Important topics include getting started with Visual Basic, creating a form, setting properties, writing code, mastering the Basic language, responding to user commands, creating menus, mouse programming, working with files, debugging your application, and using graphics. Compatibility with QuickBasic and Visual Basic for Windows are also discussed. By the author of Graphics Programming in C and The Essential Guide to MS DOS Programming.
