    A time showing tutorial

    Introduction
    =========

    This is a very basic introduction to visual basic. This is my first step towards vbs. I have used notepad for making it and actually Visual Basic is not needed. Now just a little introduction to the program. Actually it shows the current time as the time of your computer. This is not a important one but a good step towards first programming .

    What is Visual Basic?
    ================

    Visual Basic (VB) is an event driven programming language and associated development environment created by Microsoft. It is derived heavily from BASIC. VB enables Rapid Application Development (RAD) of graphical user interface (GUI) applications, easy access to databases using DAO, RDO, or ADO, and easy creation of ActiveX controls. A programmer can quickly put together an application using the components provided with Visual Basic itself.

    Tutorial
    ======

    The tutorial can be made by notepad and it is much easy.

    Open Notepad and paste this :

    Code:
    Msgbox "The current time is : " & time
    Now save the file as Time.vbs or what ever name (except .vbs) you want. Now double click on the file and check what have you done!

    Yeah, this Notepad stuff is really cool, anyone knows VB can add more things as you wish, such as Type of Dialog Box and the Title Bar text

    Code:
    Msgbox "The current time is : " & time ,vbInformation, "Time"
