Visual Basic lesson 1

First entry about Visual Basic!!!!

First of all, the video gives an introduction on what the course is about and what will we learn, explaining the lessons' division.
It starts explaining RSS (Really Simple Sindycation), a way to subscribe to channels for receiving news, blog contents, feeds,... using RSS reader.
Then it explains where to download Visual Basic 2005.
Now, we're going to create a windows application, the most simple one, HELLO WORLD.
We go to File- new project, and select Windows application and name it as hello world. Then we press the Start debugging button and we can see a window, which we can resize, minimize...
We open the Toolbox and add a button by grab and drag it. We press start debugging and see that a wholy functional window is there.
We double click the button and a new window appears, where we can put our code, where we add a little bit of code. Now we have two tabs, the design tab and the Form tab.
If we want, we can save our project, giving a name to it. VB creates a folder automatically.
We go to where we have saved the project, double click the executable, and the window will appear again.
Projects cantain all the source code that will be compiled. A solution can contain lots of projects.
There's a solution explorer where we can see all our projects,access or delete them.
When we want to start the project again, we open VB2005 and select File-open project.
Then, it explains what debugging means. It is how fast will your application works. You can also add a break point, and when you press start debugging, the programme will stop in this code line.
And this is everything in lesson 1.
Let's go to lesson 2.
