In order to understand how this happens it is necessary to understand the major concepts, objects and tools used by Visual Basic. The main object in Visual Basic is called a form . To this form you add controls . Controls are things like text boxes, check boxes and command buttons. From this window, you choose the property you want to change from the list and change its corresponding setting.
Events are responses to actions performed on controls.
Code must be written to create an event. You can do this in Visual Basic's code window . You can open a code box for a particular form by choosing it from the project window and selecting the View Code button. The project window contains a list of objects associated with that project. Personal Programming is what Visual Basic is all about.
