Need help from your side

Hi

Good afternoon everybody.

I am an IT student in a local university in my country. I have
a bit of knowledge in VB6. So I decided to improve my programming knowledge
with VB.NET.

This is what I need from your side.

1) What is the place I want to cover first?

2) Some idea and suggested books to Learn, improve Object Oriented
Program in VB.NET.



I am looking forward a favorable reply from these group members.

Any ideas that I can follow would be very much appreciated.

Thanks.

Google is my best friend for examples.

There are a great number of websites with all kind of tutorials.

Hi,

It depends on your existing level of knowledge, particularly surrounding
VB6. If you have a good grasp of "old" VB, the first thing to do would be
to investigate some of the basic leaps forward VB.NET made. Full object
orientation is a good place to start - how much programming theory (OOP etc)
do you know? After that I'd start learning about the .NET Framework in
general and its capabilities.

After that, there are many avenues. Why are you looking to broaden your
skills? Are you doing it for a university course, or to improve your
chances of being hired after you graduate? Depending on your direction, you
might want to start learning and testing some of the later technologies like
WPF and Silverlight as the demand for those skills is growing steadily.

Good luck and have fun coding :)
