Visual Basic and databases is a tutorial that provides a detailed introduction to using Visual Basic for accessing and maintaining databases for desktop applications. Topics covered include: database structure, database design, Visual Basic project building, the DAO (data access object) data control, data bound controls, proper interface design, structured query language (SQL), and database reports. For Visual Basic 6 users, topics such as the ADO (ActiveX data object) data control and data environment, ADO data bound controls, and the data report designer are also covered.
Visual Basic and databases is presented using a combination of over 700 pages of course notes and actual Visual Basic examples. No previous experience working with databases is presumed. It is assumed, however, that users of the course are familiar with the Visual Basic environment and the steps involved in building a Visual Basic application (such background can be gained from our LEARN VISUAL BASIC 5 and LEARN VISUAL BASIC 6 courses). Included with the course is free, unlimited support and advice via e-mail.
