Describe the relationship between a control and its properties in VB.NET.
Identify basic controls used in the development of VB.NET desktop applications.
Use properties to alter the appearance and/or behavior of controls on a VB.NET form.
By the end of this project, you will have used Visual Studio to explore the use of controls and their properties in a VB.NET desktop application. You will design and build a form by adding controls such as labels, text boxes, and buttons. To customize the form, you will learn to alter the values of the properties associated with each control. Working with controls and their properties provides an application developer with the skills needed to develop the user interface—the visual component—of an application. Note: This course works best for learners who are based in the North America region. We’re currently working on providing the same experience in other regions.
