VB.Net using Visual Studio is another great language to learn. If you like VB.Net you may eventually like C#, and vice versa. It has sophisticated data structures, can be Object Oriented and makes great Windows desktop applications or can be the code behind an ASP.Net website or web application.
VB.Net and C# have great GUI capabilities using the ToolBox functionality in an OOP design. You can inherit from these great ToolBox classes in an OOP way, as shown by this tutorial, where we do two examples of this:
- blinking Label (twenty times)
- only allow numeric keystrokes within a TextBox
Hope you enjoy the tutorial.
