Object oriented programming in VB Net

The author takes an object-oriented approach to teaching Visual Basic.Net (VB.Net), the new, fully object-oriented version of Visual Basic. He starts off by covering object-oriented analysis and design and modelling using UML, and then moves on to a detailed discussion of object oriented concepts such as objects and classes. He shows the students how to develop short programs, and also covers more advanced topics such as data structures and components. The book will be accompanied by a full supplements package in the form of a companion website containing code for all programs in the book, additional program examples, a case study, and information on using VB to program database applications.
