Getting Started


To use Visual Basic in our classroom, open the program as follows:
Click Start - All Programs - Microsoft Visual Basic 2005 Express Edition.


The window that appears after Visual Basic is invoked has a menu bar whose first item is File.

1.    Click on File and, then, click on New Project to produce a New Project input dialog box.

2.    The Windows Application icon should be selected as the installed template. If this is not the
       case, click on Windows Application to select it.

3.    In the Name box, type the filename indicated by your instructor.

4.    Click OK.



IMPORTANT:

Although there are other methods of creating a project, for this class you will receive credit only if you follow this method.
