Beginners Book

[ohmbru2]

Can anyone recommend a book to learn VB? I have several years of experience developing Access 97 databases, but have not used code very much. I have used simple demos and adapted the to my application.

Also, how can I tell what version I am running?

If you are a real novice to Visual Basic and programming in particular, I would recommend (together with the "dummies" book) J. Smiley's Learn to Program with VB6

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/A...6915300/sr=1-2/ref=sc_b_2/002-1991488-2006422

If you do have some practice, then my favorite would be Petroutsos' Mastering VB6

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/A...15300/sr=1-16/ref=sc_b_16/002-1991488-2006422

or F. Balena's Programming Microsofts VB6

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/A...6915300/sr=1-8/ref=sc_b_8/002-1991488-2006422
