Tutorial Difficult Easy

Some Info
Okay , for much people it is hard to learn Visual basic's . In this 10 part long tutorial I will learn you how to use Visual Basic's . Don't say this will be just like a other tutorial , this will finish with 10 good tutorials ! ​

The Tutorial​

Okay today I will show you the first step in Visual Basic's , just like every 'coding' language it starts with 'Hello' . I have added every where photo's for helping you ! They are in the spoiler .
​

1 ) First we're going to open the project . Click on 'file' -> 'New Project'
2 ) Now we're going to add a 'button' , this is on the left box , under 'General' . Just click on it and press it randomly in your program .This is the window in the center , with the name 'Form1' .
3 ) The button is added to ours program , but it is called 'Button1' we are going to change it . Click on the button and then go left in the screen , there will be a new box .
Scroll down in the box till you find 'text' , change it to 'Click' or something you like .
4 ) Now we are going to do the first coding . Dubble click on the button in the centre . There will pop-up a other window called 'Form1.vb' . Okay now I will show you what the code means .
Public Class Form1

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

End Sub

End Class
Click to expand...

Green This is a 'sub' a sub is a part of a form (= part of a program). Here you need to remind only the 'Button_click'. This means when you press the button it will do this code . 'End Sub' is just to show that the sub is ended .

Red This is your full 'form1' (= Part1 of your program , sometimes you will make more then 1 form . Then there will be form2 or how you called ) .
But in you will be righting almost everything bitween this , 'End class' end the class
Okay now you know what this means we will be starting to make code . Add this between your sub .
MessageBox.Show("Hello this is my first program !")
Click to expand...
This code means when you click 'button1' it will show a messagebox with this text .
5 ) Now we are going to do our first 'debug' , debug is testing the program of there are no problems . Press the play button and the program will start . Now click the button , there will pop-up a window with our text(If not do the other steps again) .
6 ) Now we see are program and we are going to click the button . The messagebox will show up , but there is no title ?!
So we are going to add a title . Close the program and go back to your code . Add the red ;
Public Class Form1

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
MessageBox.Show("Hello this is my first program !","First Title")
End Sub

End Class
Click to expand...
7 ) Final Step We're going to 'debug' again . Like you see the title is added . You have maded your first program in Visual Basics ! If you want to get some more commands for your messagebox check the 'extra'
EXTRA
You can only click now 'ok' but you can change this . Photo
