Learn the Environment

will show how to create my default environment in Visual Studio 2010 Express. I will discuss the various windows as well as their functions. I will discuss the properties window, toolbox as well as the solution explore

Hello World!

Write your 1st program.

This video will demonstrate how to properly create and name a form with a button and a text box in Visual Studio 2012/2010. This is a basic "Hello World!" program where output is displayed to a text box following a button click.

Naming Conventions for Common Form Elements

This video will discuss common form elements and common naming conventions in VB.Net Visual Studio 2012. I will discuss textboxes, listboxes, labels and buttons. I will discuss what you need and why.

Learn what a Variables is.

This video uses a console app to show what a variable is. This video covers how to declare and initialize variables in Visual Basic .NET, using Visual Studio Community 2017.

Videos make by ACG Parnell like to use console app to learn. So you should learn what a Console app is so that you can watch ACG videos.

How to use if statements

Video #1 - If with Else.

Video #2 - If with ElseIF and Else.

Is how to do an If the right way and how you could do it wrong.

Video #3 - If statements with numbers, strings, lower case, text box password masking.

How to use case statements

These statements can make your code easier to read when you are testing the same value over and over again.

How to make a function:

This is a basic function that you call and it returns the same thing

How to make a function:

This is a basic function that you call and pass it a string. This lest the function do more.

How to make a function:

Why to use functions,

ByRef & ByVal Comparison

ByRef (by reference) and ByVal (by value) are compared and contrasted in this simple example using a list box

Over Loading Functions:

This tutorial illustrates how and why you may overload a function or sub procedure. We will use Visual Basic to create a program which converts currency from one unit to another. We will create three different functions with the same name but differing parameters.

For...To...Next loops

Demonstrates how to output numbers 1 to 10 using only three lines of code in a count-controlled loop.

What is a Do While

This shows how to do a loop with a Do While.

Do Until Loop Tutorial

This tutorial describes how to use a Do Until loop to display data to a list box. We will display the numbers between 1 and 10 using a Do and a While loop. We will discuss counters and other basic syntax. Watch my next video on sentinel loops.

For Next Loop Tutorial

This video will introduce the concept of a For Next loop. We will contrast with a while loop and explain the involved syntax.

Sentinel Loop Tutorial

in this tutorial, we will create a sentinel loop which will terminate upon the entry of a correct password (condition). We will solve the problem with a Do While and a Do Until loop.

Find Max Value in List Box

Using a While Loop in fin the max value.

Nested Loop Tutorial

I made an error in this video when I "reset" the variable j within the outer loop. I set it to 0 but I should have set it to 1 just to be consistent. It didn't ruin anything but it was a mistake.

This tutorial will show you how to create a nested loop. We will use a Do While loop but the same ideas would apply to a For Next loop or an Until loop. In this example, we create a multiplication table in a list box. We use two separate loops, each with its own counter variable.
