Visual basic is the favorite programming environment of many users. When visual basics<br />
was originated, it created a revolution in windows programming, and that revolution appears to<br />
this day. Windows programming was never easy as it is in using visual basics it is so easy that<br />
Programs are made right before the eyes and are executed.<br />
Visual basic was derived from BASIC, and is an event –driven programming language.<br />
Programming in visual basics is done visually, which means that as you can see how our<br />
application will look on execution. We can therefore change and experiment with design to meet<br />
our requirement .visual basic 6.0 has many powerful features that are required in today’s<br />
programming environment. Visual basic is used in a task-oriented way, which is the best way to<br />
write programs. VISUAL BASIC is high level programming language which evolved from the<br />
earlier DOS . Version called BASIC.BASIC means Beginners All purpose Symbolic instruction<br />
Code .it is a relatively easy programming language to learn.<br />
Features of Visual Basic<br />
‣ Visual basic applications are event driven: Event driven means the user<br />
is in control of the application. The user generates a stream of events each time be or she clicks<br />
with the mouse or presses a key on the keyboard. Your visual basic application responds to those<br />
events through the code you’ve written and attached to those events.<br />
‣ Visual basic support the principle of object-oriented design: This means<br />
that you can compartmentalize different aspect of your application as object and develop and<br />
test those object independently of the rest of application .By modifying certain properties and<br />
invoking the methods of these objects ,you exert a great deal of control over the user’s<br />
interaction with the visual basic program you’ve written.<br />
‣ Microsoft has designed Visual Basic to be complete windows application<br />
developed system: This means that your Visual Basic application will look and behave like<br />
other windows programs your user might work with .In other words ,your visual basic<br />
application will conform to the windows 95 look and feel without any extra work on your part.<br />
‣ Visual basic is infinitely extensible through the use of active controls,<br />
Dynamically Linked Libraries (DDLs), and add –ins: you can create ActiveX
