                                   1.Visual programming



Unit I
Starting a new project- the properties of window – common form properties – scalable properties – color properties – making a form responsive – printing a visual – representation of a form – types – creating stand – alone windows programs – the tool box – creating controls – the name (control name) property – properties of command buttons – simple event procedures for command buttons – access keys – image controls – text boxes – labels – navigating between controls – message boxes – the grid – the ASCII representation of forms.

Unit II


Statements in visual basic – variables – setting properties with code – data types – working with variables – more on strings – more on numbers – constants – input boxes – displaying information on a form – the format function – picture boxes – rich text boxes – the printer object – determination loops – indeterminate loops – making decisions – select case – nested if –then’s – the goto – string functions – numeric functions – date and time functions – financial functions.

Unit III


Function procedures – sub procedures – advanced uses of procedures and functions – using the object browser to navigate among your sub programs – List: one dimensional arrays – arrays with more than one dimensional – using lists and arrays with functions and procedures –new array based strings - records (user-defined types)

Unit IV


The with statements – enums –control arrays – list and combo boxes – Flex grid control – code modules ; global procedures – the do events function and sub main accessing windows function – Error trapping – creating and object in Visual basic – building your own classes.

Unit V
