In this five day course, you will learn the Visual Basic.NET language from the ground up and use Visual Studio.NET to assist you in your learning as well as in the creation of end-user applications. It provides you with the basic skills required to develop functionally sound Visual Basic.NET applications.

You will learn Visual Basic.NET to create graphical user interface applications.

Course Objectives
By the end of the course you will be able to:

• Create a user interface in a Windows Forms application.
• Work with data and variables.
• Control program flow by writing code that reacts to specific situations and produces the correct results for the situation.
• Work with classes to define new types of objects.
• Enhance user interface functionality by adding form components.
• Deploy your application so that it runs on other computers.
