From the Author
Don't write your first VB program without reading this book!Picture this...
You've just read an introductory book on Visual Basic (hopefully mine!), and you're starting work on your very first Visual Basic program.
A little bit into the process, and you realize that you'd like to change the Color of a button on your form. You change the BackColor property, but nothing happens!
Or...
It's your first day of work at your new Visual Basic programming job, and your new boss casually mentions that you should change the mouse pointer when the user moves the mouse over a disabled checkbox!
Or...
You send a friend the Visual Basic program you've just written, but when they run it all they see are error messages about missing DLL's.
In all three of these cases, you can search through your Visual Basic documentation, you can check out online help, you can search the newsgroups, even call Microsoft but...
You can get the answers to these questions, and 97 others, quickly, painlessly, and enjoyably in my new book.
The 100 questions that I answer in this book are the 100 questions that beginner Visual Basic programmers have asked me over the course of the last 5 years of teaching Visual Basic. Even if you've been programming in Visual Basic for a while, I know that you'll still find this book useful
I can guarantee you that as soon as you start to write a Visual Basic program of your own, you'll be asking one of these questions yourself.
And for those of you who read my first book, Learn to Program with Visual Basic, I can guarantee you that this is not just another dry question and answer book. You'll be entertained as well!
