New to VB.NET? Dont worry, give this Tutorial a quick read over and well soon get you on your way to developing top notch applications!
Here we will teach you Basic Code, how to personalize your Form, Controls & More!
1) Changing the name of your new Form (What is displayed at the top of the Window)
Once you have opened your new Project/Form go over to the Properties Box at the right hand side, in this box, scroll down to find an option named ‘Text’ the predefined value should be ‘Form#’ highlight this and change it to whatever you see fit!
2) Adding code to your Form/Controls
Not many people know how to do this when they first start out in Visual Basic’s buts its simple, simply double click the control you wish to add code to, then the code window will open up!
3) Changing Button text
Its the same idea as changing Form Window Name, scroll down and find ‘Text’ the predefined value should be ‘Button#’ just change this to whatever you wish to call your button!
4) Resizing Forms
You can resize your form by using the Drag Handles which are positioned on all sides of the form in the Design View!
5) How do I test and run my program?
At the top of Visual Studio, find the Debug option in the Menu, then select Start Debugging, this will go through your code to find errors, if there are non, your program should run and you can test out your new code!
6) How do I finalize my application and make an installer?
There are several ways to do this, we will create a tutorial at a later date showing you show to do this!
