Résumé
You're no idiot, of course. You know no programming
language is easy, but you've heard Visual Basic . NET is
friendlier than others. Still, just the thought of tangling
with ail chose strings of code makes you feel compute,
illiterate.
Now you'll be fluent in no time! The Complete Idiots Guide to Visual Basic.NET explains all the essential concepts in a series of easy-to-understand lessons. In this Complete Idiots Guide, you get:
- Step-by-step instructions for creating a simple Windows application.
- Complete information on new I/O class libraries of Visual Basic. NET.
- A comprehensive list of the controls available in Visual Basic. NET.
- Foolproof information on object-oriented programming and how to implemented using Visual Basic. NET.
