Visual BASIC’s object oriented event driven (OOED) interface is used to program sequential, conditional, and repetition structures. Multiple objects and control arrays are used to gather input. Sequential data files are created and accessed in Visual BASIC programs. IV. Student Learning Outcomes: Create a program using the VB development environment Use sequential looping & control logic in programs V.
Develop program menus Program dialog boxes Program printed output with the graphics object.
Use the Format function Create variables and constants Understand the Option Explicit statement Create local, form-level, and global variables Concatenate strings Use a dialog box Specify the start up form Code IF and Case statements Use logical operators Use the UCase function Add a check box control to a form Add option buttons to a form Use the MsgBox function Use the SelStart, SelLength, and Len Code using For Next, Do While, and Do Until Create a control array Understand an object’s change event Create a general procedure Use the MessageBox function Debug a program Program a list box Program a combo box Develop a program function
Student Learning Performance Objectives: Create a new project Identify the Main, Form and Toolbox Identify the Project Explorer and Properties window Set the Caption and Name property Save a Visual Basic project Open an existing project Use Visual Basic’s Help feature Add a control to a form Change the property for more than 1 control at a time Add an Image control and/or scroll bar to a form Add a Command button to a form Write Visual basic code Add a frame control to a form Print a Visual Basic application Make a program executable Plan an Object Oriented Event Driven application Create an Object Oriented Event Driven application Use the timer object Build a user interface Add a text box control to the form Control Focus with the TabIndex property Write Visual Basic equations Use the Val function
