Visual Basic 6 Free Tutorial
I know there are a lot of Free tuts out there but having used a few of them, most leave a lot to be desired.
I have dug up this tutorial site off the internet. And while I'm just getting into it its really good in that it takes NOTHING for granted about your knowledge as far as I can tell. This is something I haven't found in other tutorials. Even VB4 for Dummies.
In the couple hours I've been going through it it seems like the best VB tutorial I've come across for beginners. So I thought I would share this with everyone in case someone else is interested.

I say we have a contest. Who can post a link to the most well thought out, best written, tutorial for beginners. Eh. Just a thought.

Thank you
Dopey's Visual Basic 6.0 Tutorial Beginners Level 1
Okay. Lets get this straight. You want to be a programmer when you grow up right? "Right". Well, you have to learn to make decent programs. It takes time to learn a programming language, and more time to master it. You can't learn a programming language in one day and know how to make a advance game or application.
Programming.
A. Where to Start
Rome wasn't built in a day...
Programming is something that takes time to learn and even more time to master. You can't expect to read one book or take one class and start writing serious applications or games.
You have two options for learning programming:
A) Start in the shallow pool and move to the deep pool later on.
B) Go straight to the deep pool and try to hold yourself up using flotation devices.
I have friends that have tried starting out with programming languages such as Pascal/Turbo Pascal, Delphi, and Java and transitioned to C++ and Visual Basic. I found this way of learning to be a waste of time, considering I knew where I wanted to be before I started learning programming. So, I started out with visual basic.
If you are bad at organization and logic, you might want to try a higher level language such as Delphi before attempting to tackle C++. Delphi and C++ are structurally similar, so you will get the hang of C++ if you spent time learning Delphi.
In the event that you choose to take this route, I recommend downloading Game Maker. Game Maker is basically a development kit for people who are at entry level and want to learn the fundamentals of game creation. It was written in Delphi and includes its own scripting language in addition to using Delphi.
www.gamemaker.nl

Okay, now the coding part.
So what would a beginner like to make? Lets start with a classic Hello World application.
Code:
Command1_Button
MsgBox ("Hello World")
End Sub
This code means if you press the button you created, it will pop up the message "Hello World!". Remember, if you want to make a message always USE THE PARENTHESIS! If you get into a habit of not using the parenthesis, it will hurt you in the future! And remember, anything that is in parenthesis will be the text the your program will make. So if you put
Code:
Print "How are you?"
In a button, when you press the button it will make the text "How are you" at 00 xy axis. But heres another thing.
There are many methods to do this, heres another one.
Code:
A = "How are you?"
Print A
This can be another method, its both the same thing. Now, moving onto numbers. Heres the tricky part (for beginners).
NEVER DO THIS. ALOT OF PEOPLE MAKE BIG MISTAKES JUST BY MISTAKING THESE.
Code:
A = "5"
Print "A"
Guess what this code does? Okay so you want it to print the number 5 right? But instead it prints A because like i said, anything in quotes "" will be printed. It doesn't matter if you put "5" because you put "A" also, and you told it to print "A" instead of 5. To fix this error, what do you think we should do?
Code:
A = "5"
Print A
If you were thinking about getting rid of the quotes "" around A, you're right. Now the program will print 5 instead of A.
Alright now that you got a little better, lets move on.
More Advance Stuff
Now we're going to make a calculator. What kind? Add, Subtract, Multiply, and Divide.
Coding this calculator will make a big difference for you, in the future.
Code:
Private Sub Command1_Click()
//to add
Dim a As Integer
Dim b As Integer
a = Text1.Text
b = Text2.Text
Label4.Caption = Text1.Text + Text2.Text
//to subtract
Private Sub Command1_Click()
Dim a As Integer
Dim b As Integer
a = Text1.Text
b = Text2.Text
Label4.Caption = Text1.Text - Text2.Text
//to multiply
Private Sub Command1_Click()
Dim a As Integer
Dim b As Integer
a = Text1.Text
b = Text2.Text
Label4.Caption = Text1.Text * Text2.Text
//to divide
Private Sub Command1_Click()
Dim a As Integer
Dim b As Integer
a = Text1.Text
b = Text2.Text
Label4.Caption = Text1.Text / Text2.Text
End Sub
ALright, remember, + = add, - = subtract, *=multiply, and /=divide
So take a look at the code above. I made 1 button, 8 textboxes, and 4 labels. The button is the most important, it is used to calculate. The button contains the most code.
So the label4.caption is where the answer will be printed. Text1.Text and Text2.Text are important too, its where you put the 2 values to add/subtract/multiply/divide.
So if Text1.Text + Text2.Text, those 2 values are added
if Text1.Text - Text2.Text, those 2 values are subtracted
if Text1.Text * Text2.Text, those 2 values are multiplied
if Text2.Text / Text2.Text, those 2 values are divided.
Thank you for your time reading this, please be successful for whatever you do, you're brain is the most important part, use it or lose it. You need a brain to make good programs, and i also alot of patience. May your wishes come true, and again, be successful in life. I hope this tutorial will wipe out some questions.

Visual Basic Items Removed From Visual Basic.NET
A while ago (maybe up to a year) I had found a web page (probably a Microsoft MVP's home age) that had a list of about 100 things that were removed from Visual Basic in the transition to Visual Basic.NET. As it is, I would like to look at that again, but I can't seem to find it on my computer. Does anyone remember this page and/or have a copy of the link or the file that was on it. It has particular things like Debug.Print is no longer valid and MsgBox function is not supported. I've look on Microsoft's website and found a great deal of information about implementation difference, but I can't seem to locate this particular piece. If anyone could help I would appreciate it very much.
Thanks in Advnance

Hello,
My friend is looking for a free basic compiler preferably with a graphical user interface.
He has programmed in the '80s using gwbasic and would like to find a compiler which can understand this dialect.
Can anyone tell me where to download such a thing?
Can Visual Basic from Microsoft understand the old gwbasic dialect?
Are there any older versions of Microsoft Visual Basic for download at official Microsoft sites?
Thanks a lot.
