[angel999]

Is anyone here familiar with visual basic? I only have some good knowledge on qbasic an i want to know how helpful is it going to be in learning visual basic. Qbasic is quite an outdated version but i really feel it might be some connection between two of them. Anyone got idea about it?

Friend please make me clear what you mean "This course assumes that you have no programming." Have learnt visual basic so far or have you done any kinds of programming in visual basic?? Is there any relation between qbasic and visual basic??

Visual Basic is one of the easiest programming languages to learn and will provide you a good base for further languages.
It is an object based (not object oriented) language.

If you are using visual studio then you'll be assisted by the great autocomplete feature (it tells you what command/statement can come next and tells you what it does). It helps a lot in learning the language. Besides that there are wizards for almost everything from making a simple interface to establishing database connectivity.

You should concentrate intitially on learning how to use all the features (the sidebar, autocomplete, different wizards) of visual studio and the language will come to you automatically.

Are you trying to say Qbasic and visual basic have got no any linkage to each other except that the name sounds like it is kind of related? So would you suggest me to use visual basic if i have to develop a computer programme which uses lots of graphics for its output showing.

Visual Basic (VB) is a third-generation event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) from Microsoft for its COM programming model first released in 1991. Visual Basic is designed to be relatively easy to learn and use.Visual Basic was derived from BASIC and enables the rapid application development (RAD) of graphical user interface (GUI) applications, access to databases using Data Access Objects, Remote Data Objects, or ActiveX Data Objects, and creation of ActiveX controls and objects. Scripting languages such as VBA and VBScript are syntactically similar to Visual Basic, but perform differently.
