General Visual Studio Help Using Common Controls

I know this sounds very simple, but I am just starting out in visual studio and I am looking for instructions on the basic controls. In general, what the different options do. I am just trying to get familiar with some of the functions and I am not quite clear on how to manipulate the data. For example, how to call information in a text box after clicking the return button instead of changing the input in the window. I know this sounds simple, but very frustrating to get started with the basics. I'm looking for a good book or online support forum to help me overcome some simple hurdles. Also, there is a clock function that I can use as a down counter in a program that someone made.

Visual Studio has several programming videos on the web. If you like books, start with something like tutorials in VS.

To handle the back button in the text box, just handle the KeyPressed event, and in the e parameter you will get all the information you need.



To make something like a clock, you can use the Timer component. It fires an event based on the period of the timer interval.

If you already have experience with this kind of programming, you can choose cooking for the appropriate language you are trying to learn. The cookbook has answers to questions to help you quickly and quickly.

I did the same when I wanted to pick up C # .Net after I did VB 6 earlier.

However, if you want to spend more time getting things together and getting the gist of it, I would recommend the mannequin book.

And yes, there is a clock control that you can drag and drop and program for the _tick event as soon as you enable it and set its interval.

At DreamInCode.net

There are many great open source (free) resources and tutorials out there.

I solved a few problems and learned a few new techniques. What I love about this is that the tutorials walk you through step by step and you get the source as well.
