| Course Overview: |
Visual Basic .NET is the most widely used programming language for creating Windows applications. One reason is that Visual Basic .NET is easier to learn and faster to use than most other programming languages.
If you're a Visual Basic .NET programmer who wants to go beyond the introductory level to create the sophisticated and powerful programs business users need, this course is for you. You'll learn the in-demand programming skills needed to get new work in the business world, with a specific emphasis on database applications.
You'll begin your studies by discovering how to enrich the graphical user interface with custom menus and toolbars. You'll then explore multiple form applications, starting with built-in dialog controls and then turning to helper forms and Multiple Document Interface applications.
You'll then gain a better understanding of databases. You'll find out how to access and modify data with data-bound controls, ADO .NET, and Structured Query Language (SQL). The course will conclude with a survey of other areas you might be interested in studying, including information on additional SQL functionality, Web applications, and XML.
