Learning Visual Basic

**The_Doctor** · 06-11-2005, 22:46

As a part of the second year of the computer course I am doing at college we will be learning Visual Basic.

We have already used it in Excel, which I found quite easy. We did not do much, only make a simple order form. I was able to successfully change some of the code for a marco that went wrong.

I want to get ahead of the rest of the class by learning some of it over the holidays.

What book(s) should buy?

I will also need Visual Basic (other then the version on Excel), I know some books come with it.

Hmm... don't know any good books or sites off the top of my head, but I could look for some. I know that there was one book that I found to be very good, I will have to look up the title.

In case you didn't already know, the visual basic in excel is different from both visual basic 6, and the current bersion of the language, vb .net
