hello
I used to teach VB6 at schools, adult colleges a few years ago. Having seen
a bit of VB.net I am a little shocked to say the least. The idea of teaching
VB.net to beginners is way harder than VB6 and VB6 was a challenge.
The whole look and feel is more difficult...OK for me but I would go broke
as a teacher if I had to teach VB.net. As the most popular programming
language around why has MS made something easy to do now more complicated in
the name of progress? This looks like a university research project being let
out too early. Trying to please everyone in other languages has made VB less
accessable to the public and with faster computers around I cant see how this
is better.
I tried finding help for a simple textbox on the help index and it was
absurdly difficult.
I am speaking from an education pont of view as I myself can pick this up.
