The 'Integrated Development Environment' allows you to create fully-fledged Windows applications with the minimum of effort and time. Instructions and programs contained within this book cover mainly version 5.0 of Visual Basic, with the differences between version 5.0 and version 4.0, where appropriate, noted. This book is aimed at those of you who are new to programming, or new to Visual Basic. No previous programming experience is necessary, though familiarity with the use of Windows is assumed.
