Visual Basic 2005 Database Projects 1 is designed with three different programs included for your use. The programs illustrate advanced uses of Visual Basic with databases. Topics covered include using data connection and data set objects, data bound controls, adding, editing, and deleting records, graphics and printing.

This free product has the complete source code (and associated Access databases) for VISUAL BASIC 2005 DATABASE PROJECTS that you can study and modify, as you desire. To gain the programming skills needed to understand this code, take a look at our VISUAL BASIC 2005 AND DATABASES tutorial.

The programs included with VISUAL BASIC 2005 DATABASE PROJECTS are: WEIGHT MONITOR, a program allowing you to monitor your daily weight and compute your body mass index (BMI), STUDENT IDENTIFICATION, a program that allows entering information (including a picture) about school students and printing identification cards, and PIZZA ORDERS, a order/customer tracking system.

Visual Basic Database Projects 1 is a professional and useful tool that contains three programs you can use at home.

Major Features:

1. Illustrate advanced uses of Visual Basic with databases.
2. Topics covered include using the data access object (DAO), ActiveX data object (ADO), data bound controls, relational database design, graphics and printing.
3. Has the actual Visual Basic source code for Visual Basic Database Projects that you can study and modify, as you desire.

Visual Basic and Databases 2 offers users a helpful tutorial that provides a detailed introduction to use Visual Basic for accessing and maintaining databases.

Major Features:

1. Topics covered include: database structure, database design, Visual Basic project building, the DAO (Data Access Object) data control, data bound controls, proper interface design, Structured Query Language (SQL), and database reports.
2. For Visual Basic 6.0 users, new topics such as the ADO (ActiveX Data Object) data control and data environment, ADO data bound controls, and the data report object are also covered.
3. Visual Basic and Databases is presented using a combination of more than 700 pages of course notes and actual Visual Basic examples.
4. No previous experience in working with databases is presumed. It is assumed, however, that users of the course are familiar with the Visual Basic environment and the steps involved in building a Visual Basic application.

Access 2003 to Visual Basic Object Converter 6.0 offers you a powerful Microsoft Access 97 through 2003 Add-In utility to convert Access Queries, Forms and Code, Controls (including a number of ActiveX Custom Controls like the Microsoft Windows Common Controls and the Common Dialog Control), Macros, Reports, Code and Class Modules to Visual Basic Forms and Projects. The easy to use interface will convert all Access Objects except Tables and Pages to Visual Basic 6.0 in seconds. The program converts Subforms, Tab Controls, and Continuous or Multi-Page Forms. Access Standard Controls are converted into equivalent Visual Basic Controls. Converted ActiveX Controls are automatically added to the Visual Basic Project.

The program converts Access Basic Code to Visual Basic Code including all Code behind Forms, Reports, and Modules and Provides extensive context-sensitive help, conversion hints, tips and helpful guidelines. Converted Access databases will run immediately or with minimal changes in Visual Basic 6.0 allowing for conversion to the VB.NET development environment. An Access 2007 version will be available soon.
