Aim: -To study about Visual Basic Editor -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Visual Basic is a high level programming language which evolved from the earlier DOS version called BASIC. BASIC means Beginners All Purpose Symbolic Instruction Code. It is very easy programming language to learn.
In BASIC, programming is done in a text-only environment and the program is executed sequentially. In VB, programming is done in a graphical environment.

Form Window:-

The Form Window is central to visual basic application developing. It is the place where you design your application in Visual Basic, the place where all the controls are placed.

Form Layout Window:-

From this window we can see the position of the form at the time of execution. Above figure shows this thing.

Project Explorer Window & Properties Window:-

Enrollment No.______________

Project explorer window displays the project name along with all forms that are included in the project. In a project there may be n number of forms according to the project. Properties window is used to establish initial property values for objects. The drop-down box at top of the window lists all objects in the current form. Two views are available: Alphabetic and Categorized. Under this box are the available properties for the currently selected object.

Code Window:-

IntelliSense:While writing program/codes, different properties or methods are accessed. It is sometimes not possible to remember the exact syntax for a property or a method. IntelliSense is similar to auto completion systems. There are two types of IntelliSense. 1) Auto List Members 2) Auto Quick Info

1) Form:Form Window:-

The Form Window is central to visual basic application developing. It is the place where you design your application in Visual Basic, the place where all the controls are placed.

Enrollment No.______________

Form is the first object we see when we open the application. It is the window into which all the controls will appear where we will input data and see results. There is not too much we can do with form, at this time. Basically we adjust the BackColor and the StartUpPosition and we start putting controls on it. (StartUpPosition indicates that where the form will open on the screen when we run it)

In a single visual basic project there may be more than one forms present as per the requirement of the user.

2) Label:The label tool is the simplest and the most commonly used tool. It is used to display static text, titles and screen output from operations. Labels are used when the text is not to be changed by the user. The prefix for the control should be lbl.

Sets the tab order for the label Displays the specified text when the mouse is paused over this label If true then label is visible otherwise not visible

3) Text Box:A textbox is a control in which, the user inputs some values like strings, numbers or special characters. It is normally used when the programmer wants to take the input from the user. Output can also be printed into the textbox. There can be n number of textboxes in a single form. User can move from one textbox to another textbox using mouse or by pressing the Tab key. All operations like copy, cut and paste are possible. The programmer can enable or disable the textbox. The prefix for the control should be txt. Property Name BackColor Enabled Value Default (Text1) Colors True/False Description Identifies the object with the name specified Sets the background color of the textbox Determines whether textbox can respond to the user. If enabled=false then user can not input any value but see the value written in the textbox. Returns the font object for the textbox

4) Command Button:The command button is used to initiate actions, usually by clicking on it. This is used in all applications. The user interacts with the program by clicking buttons. The prefix for control should be cmd.

Practical-8
Aim: - To study about following controls 1) List Box 2) Combo Box 3) Check Box 4) Option Button 5) Frame -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1) List Box:A list box is the control in Visual basic that contains a list of items. With the list box control user can select items from a list of choices. Although the list of choices can be entered in the list property of the control, as in the example below, this is not a good habit to get into. There are different types of list boxes. The different types can be determined by the style and multiselect property. The different styles are as follows. 0-Standard 1-Checkbox The default style is o-Standard, which indicates the no checkbox is placed next to the item. Multiple items can be selected in the list box if the multiselect property is set to simple or extended. The style 1-Checkbox indicates that a checkbox is placed next to the item. Multiple items can be selected by clicking the checkbox. The common technique for loading a ListBox is to do it in code, with the Form_Load event. This way, if items have to be added it is a simple matter to add a line of code.

28

2) Combo Box:The combo box is called because it is a combination of list box and text box. It has the advantage over the list box of not taking up space until it is actually used which means that it makes it easier to position an the form. But the combo box has the disadvantage, sort of that the user can enter his own information, in addition to what is the list. This may take data validation

29

Enrollment No.______________

harder because the choices are not limited. When we want to force the user to choose among the specified items we can use the combo box. As in the list box, use the text property to get the information input. Label3.Caption = cbo_position.Text

It is fairly simple to load the ListBox and the ComboBox during the From_Load event. The only other detail to note is that the order in which the items appear in the Combo is not the same as the order in which the items were added. That is intentional - it is done with the Sorted property for the ComboBox. It can also be done for the ListBox.

3) Check Box:A checkbox is a box with a tick inside it. The tick mark represents that the checkbox is selected. A checkbox is normally used to select multiple itemsfor the list.

The value of checkbox is 0 if it is unchecked, 1 if it is selected or checked. The prefix for the control should be chk. The list of all the properties along with description is displayed below.

4) Option Button;The option button is similar to checkbox, but the only difference is that one can select only one item from the list. Option button placed on the form function as group.

Enrollment No.______________

For adding option button do not double click on the tool as it will add the tool on the form and not on the frame. Instead click on the tool go inside the frame and click and drag. Now the tool will be placed on the frame. The prefix for control should be opt.

5) Frame:Frames are used as a container to hold other controls like textbox, command button, labels etc. a frame can contain another frame too. Any control can be added on the frame. Frames are normally used to group checkboxes or option buttons. The prefix for the control should be fra.
