Hi "What does visual basic do?" ? Well have you heard of the programming language BASIC? It stands for "Beginner's All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Computer-language. Something like that. If you have Windows95 and still have that windows95 "companion CD" you have "QBaisic" which is a limited version of "BASIC". (It's in the \misc\dosstuff\ directory). Any way Visual basic is the windows version of this programming language. It's main advantage is it's simplicity. Unfortunately the price for simplicity is REALLY slow programs. Visual basic allows a developer to very quickly make an executable file using "forms" to make for example menus like those in you news reader and web browser, and the layout of the "toolbars". And of course you tell the compiler what you want it to do when the user clicks or whatever. For example "form1Txt.text = "hello" kinda like that. Hope I answered your question. bye Keith members.xoom.com/Keith97 kankim wrote in message <6s5o81$8p9$1@news2.tor.accglobal.net>... >what does visual basic do? > >
