Visual Basic is one of the easiest to learn computer programming language. Yes, it is obsolete but all MS Office products include VBA (Visual Basic for Application) and if you learn VB you will know VBA! In my tutorial, I used VB 6 to explain step by step how to create a simple Visual Basic Application and a relatively complex one (a Patient Management system) that is using a database. A patient Management application source code is explained in details. You will learn how to design and create a database in MS Access and how to create tables and queries. The book includes a sample application that shows how to use Windows API function. You will learn how to convert VB program that can be run only in Visual Basic development environment to a distributable application that can be installed on any client computer. For illustration, I included more than 100 screenshot images and links to a video. You will be able to download from my website complete source code for 7 Visual Basic projects including a Password Keeper, a Patient Management and a Billing Management application.

Simple, user-friendly and well-written, this book is designed for those who are learning Visual Basic for the first time. This book guides readers through the steps involved in creating a simple application and covers various issues such as Interface Design, Database Design, Distributing an Application, etc. It also demystifies topics like ActiveX and adopts a simple, easy-to-follow approach throughout the book.

Designed for an introductory programming course, this market-leading title has been enhanced to include two new tutorials on the next generation of Visual Basic - Visual Basic.NET. Programming with Visual Basic 6.0 Enhanced distinguishes itself from other Windows books because of its unique two-pronged approach. First, this book teaches programming concepts using a task-driven, rather than a command-driven, approach. By working through the tutorials, which are each motivated by a realistic case, individuals learn how to use programming applications that they are likely to encounter in the workplace. Second, the content, organization, and pedagogy of this book exploits the Windows environment. This edition includes creating reports using the print statement, as well as two full chapters on database access using ADO data control, SQL, and the DBGrid control.

New to this Edition: added coverage of Object-Oriented-Programming, coverage of new features in Visual Basic 6.0, expanded and reorganized sections, coding standards conform to new Microsoft guidelines, and Visual Basic 6.0 working model.
