Visual Basic is the largest programming class offered on most campuses. It is typically aimed at business and general education students and not Computer Science students - they study Java and C++. Sometimes, Visual Basic is offered as both Introductory and Advanced courses. This text is for the Introductory Visual Basic course. This textbook is intended for use in an Advanced Visual Basic/Programming course, which assumes completion of an introductory course. These courses are offered at both two and four year schools. This title is a good candidate for custom publishing as chapters may be used in various sequences to accommodate the specific course needs, including use in a shorter quarter system or a semester-long course. "Advanced Programming in Visual Basic.NET", by best-selling authors Bradley and Millspaugh, maintains the strong pedagogy that has been used to teach students how to program in Visual Basic since VB 4.0. Instructors and students like this book because it does not just teach Visual Basic, it incorporates basic concepts of programming, problem solving, and programming logic. "Advanced Programming in Visual Basic.N
ET" has been completely revised: including the text, website, and instructor's materials.
