Overview: Learn the skills and concepts needed to use Visual Basic 6.0 as an integrated development environment.  If you need to build Windows applications this class is for you. You will learn to design, edit, compile, test, and debug, within a common environment, rather than using a separate program for each practice. You will actually use programming code and add built-in controls, plus tabs, grid and data-bound controls. You can quickly and easily draw prototypes, or interfaces, for applications by using the tools in Visual Basic 6.0. A common programming language for all Microsoft Office applications,VBA, will enable students to share and use code across applications.

Topics:

• Visual Basic Terminology
• Building an application
• Setting properties of objects
• Forms, Variables, and Menus
• Introduction to controls
• Object-based, event-driven programming
• Debugging
• Showing and hiding forms
• Arguments and parameters
• Error handling

Course Duration: 3 days (9 am to 5 pm each day)

Pre-requisite: To ensure your success with this course, we recommend that you first have a strong familiarity with the Windows environment, attend a Windows course or have equivalent knowledge or experience.  Some programming experience is also recommended.
