DirectX on visual studio 2008

I am trying to learn how to use directX on VB.net. I found this tutorial:
http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.p...rectx+tutorial
and followed what Jenner wrote there but VB errors when I try running it.
I installed the latest directX SDK package microsoft had and still the code errors when I run it.
Anyone knows why that is? or has got some other tutorial that I could check out?
I am running on windows 7 if it matters.
Thanks,
Blacknight

What are the errors? Have you added the correct references mentioned by Jenner? Also, if you really want to go deep into DirectX I would suggest taking a look at Microsoft's XNA Game Studio.
