Visual Basic 6 Essentials & Beyond (3 Days)
Brief Outline:
Visual Basic (VB) can be used as a development tool that allows you to create your own ‘stand-alone’ applications and many others.
Visual basic gives you the ability to create accounting applications, motel booking systems, job estimating systems etc with a standard Windows interface, controls, keyboard shortcuts and other common elements.
