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 Yes, it is obsolete but all MS Office products include VBA (Visual Basic for Application) and if you learn VB you will know VBA!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.
