Visual Basic Course Outline Introduction to Visual Basic User interface - is what appears on the screen, and with which you interact, while using a program. In this book, you will create the user interfaces for your programs using the tools available in Visual Basic 2010. Integrated development environment (IDE)- is an environment that contains all of the tools and features you need to create, run, and test your programs. Introduction to Visual Basic To start Visual Studio 2008 or Visual Basic 2010 Express: 1. Click the Start button on the Windows 7 taskbar and then point to All Programs. 2. If you are using Visual Studio 2010, click Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 on the All Programs menu and then click Microsoft Visual Studio 2010. If the Choose Default Environment Settings dialog box appears, click Visual Basic Development Settings and then click Start Visual Studio. If you are using Visual Basic 2010 Express, you will need to either click Microsoft Visual Basic 2010 Express on the All Programs menu or click Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Express on the All Programs menu and then click Microsoft Visual Basic 2010 Express. 3. Click Window on the menu bar, click Reset Window Layout, and then click the Yes button. When you start Visual Studio 2010 Professional, your screen will appear similar to Figure 3-1. When you start Visual Basic 2010 Express, your screen will appear similar to Figure 3-2. As both figures indicate, the startup screen contains the Start Page window, Toolbox window, and Solution Explorer window. The startup screen in Visual Studio 2010 Professional also contains the Team Explorer window. Start Page window Solution Explorer window Toolbox windows tab Team Explorer windows tab Creating user interface The Windows Form Designer window is where you create (or design) your applications user interface. The designer window shown in Figure 3-8 contains a Windows Form object, or form. A form is the foundation for the user interface in a Windows application. A form automatically includes a title bar that contains a default captionin this case, Form1as well as Minimize, Maximize, and Close buttons. At the top of the designer window is a tab labeled Form1.vb [Design]. [Design] identifies the window as the designer window. Form1.vb is the name of the file on your computers hard disk (or on the device designated by your instructor or technical support person) that contains the Visual Basic instructions associated with the form.
