What is Visual Basic?
Visual Basic is a high level programming language which evolved from the
earlier DOS version called BASIC. BASIC means “Beginners All-purpose
Symbolic Instruction Code”. Visual Basic is an example of a graphical-based
language. A graphical-based language allows the user to work directly with
graphics.
It is a very easy programming language to learn. Different software companies
produced different of high-level languages but only a few have achieved broad
acceptance, for example (QBASIC, FORTAN and Pascal). However, people
prefer to use Microsoft Visual Basic today, as it is a well-developed
programming language and supporting resources are available everywhere.
Visual Basic is a Microsoft Windows Programming language. Visual Basic
programs are created in an Integrated Development Environmental (IDE). The
IDE allows the programmer to create, run and debug Visual Basic programs
conveniently. IDEs allows a programmer to create working programs in a
fraction of the time that it would normally take to code programs without using
IDEs.
Features of Visual Basic 6.0
Features: Visual Basic was designed to be easily learned and used by beginner
programmers. The language not only allows programmers to create simple GUI
(graphical user interface ) applications, but can also develop complex
applications.
Programming in VB is a combination of visually arranging components or
controls on a form, specifying attributes and actions of those components, and
writing additional lines of code for more functionality. Since default attributes and
actions are defined for the components, a simple program can be created
without the programmer having to write many lines of code. Performance
problems were experienced by earlier versions, but with faster computers and
2
native code compilation this has become less of an issue, the following are
some interactive features used in Visual Basic:
• Create user Interface using design tools
• Add drawings to the forms
• Set properties for the individual object on the form
• Build an executable file
• Debug the applications
• Examine the objects in the forms
• Work with data in the programs (ODBC)
• Add more functionality to the program by writing code
• Publishing the project as standard EXE program.
