Creating a simple but diverse program in Visual Basic 10

Hello Brenda!

There many ways to create programs in Visual Basic 10. Let’s just have a few review before we start.

Visual – means graphically you can see the objects that you will add in your program.

BASIC – Beginner’s All-Purpose Symbolic Instruction Code.

GUI – the Graphical User Interface of VB is so unique and ever to be the first to offer the easiest way to develop program and to see exactly right away how it will look.

Toolbox- you can use this to add objects like Textboxes, Command Buttons, Radio Option Buttons, etc.

Properties Window – this will show you all available properties of each object added and change its values.

Here are some tips that you can use to create a simple program with array.

You mentioned that you need to set first the size of array so let’s say 10 integers to be stored in your array.

“Please enter the size of your array [1-10]” <<< This message will be posted to your program. How to do this. You can use the “Caption/Label” tool to display this.

enterSize=InputBox(“enter size [1-10]: “,””,””)

After initiating the size of your array you can store now the values of each array indices multiple times. How to do this? Better to use Input Box that will accept the values of your array. Use a For Statement to make the loop to take all integers and be stored to your array. For example you will accept 5 integers for your array.

For i=0 to 4

enterValues=InputBox(“Enter values: “,””,””)

Next i

After storing the values of your array to the indices available you can now display the integers entered.
