Synopsis

"This book is an excellent introduction to programming using Visual Basic.NET. The examples start with basics and gradually develop to solve real-life problems." - Amit Kalani, CIStems Solutions LLC. "Schneider's proven approach works as effectively with VB.NET as it does with Visual Basic 6.0; the use of a variety of short examples makes the concepts being presented clear and understandable. The end-of-chapter programming projects build on this base and lead to a thorough understanding of the context for these concepts." - Chris Panell, Heald College Since its introduction in 1991, Visual Basic has become the tool of choice for developing user-friendly applications in today's business world.
