Introduction to Class Programming

Why Use Class?

Classes can improve your productivity.  Classes can organize your code into truly reusable modules and design your applications entirely using concepts derived from the Object-Oriented Design discipline. And the most important reason, objects are the base on which almost every feature of Visual Basic, without objects you can't do serious programming, you can't deliver Web based applications, and you can't write components for COM, DCOM, or MTS. To cut a long story short, you can do little or take advantage of them.  If you are new to object-oriented programming, don't worry!  The series of articles will help you to understand how objects can help you write better programs and plunge into object-oriented programming.  But I assuming , you've already learned to master many advanced programming techniques concerned with, such as, events, database programming, and user interfaces.

    It s a great sample about the class programming. However, it s still uncertain for me where I can use this in real life.

    Can anyone give me an example ?

    Thanks, Dante Salvador, for your excellent and lucid tutorial on Class Programming.
    I have worn Google to a frazzle looking for help. most of which was comprised of a few samples.
    You have helped "elucidate" me with both the why and how-to and that is no small task.
    Thanks so much for your efforts and help.

    At one time I studied programming in Pascal & Fortran --- have forgotten lots of basics....I have read thru many VB tutorials etc but never have I so clearly had the 'light bulb' go on.  Thank-you for a well organized presentation.  Look forward to your future articles.
