This book is the VB 2005 version of the author’s best-selling and highly-praised Pro .NET 2.0 Windows Forms and Custom Controls in C#. The author shows Visual Basic 2005 programmers how to design flexible, user-friendly Windows interfaces, using .NET. They will learn to use the full range of .NET controls, as well as extend them with custom controls. From best practices to user interface design tips, to a comprehensive examination of .NET user interface controls, this is a lively and practical work. Although this book is more than a reference manual, it includes detailed discussion of user interface elements that programmers will use on a regular basis.
