101 VB.NET examples - Updated 3-9-06 see first post

[kleinma]

Many of you may be aware of this great set of .NET examples, but for those of you who are new to .NET, this set of 101 code samples can be a life saver when moving from VB6 to VB.NET. It is also useful for any newcomers to programming. These are all examples done by Microsoft and contain comments and descriptions. Almost anything you want to do in .NET, you will find a basic (or advanced) implementation in these examples. This was originally out when .NET 2002 was released, but all samples have been updated to .NET 2003. Here are a few of the cool samples included.

1) Windows Forms - XP Theme Support
2) Windows Forms - How-To Use Drag and Drop
3) Windows Forms - How-To DataGrid Sorting and Filtering
4) Windows Forms - How-To System Tray Icon
5) Web Development - Data Entry Form
6) UPGRADE SAMPLE - FORM CLOSING AND SAVE CHANGES
7) UPGRADE SAMPLE - FILE EXPLORER
8) Security - Use Cryptographic Hash Algorithms
9) NET Framework - Use Temporary Files
10) Language - How-To OO Features
11) Advanced .NET Framework (GDI+) - Animation with GDI+
12) Advanced .NET Framework - Interacting with a Windows Service
13) Advanced .NET Framework - Make WIn32 API Calls
14) Advanced .NET Framework (GDI+) - Use GDI+ to manipulate images
15) Data Access - Retrieve and Process data with a SQL Data Reader

These are just a few of the great examples you will get.

03/09/2006 UPDATE
VBFORUMS member moeur pointed out the 101 VB.NET examples for 2005 link no longer works, and MS has listed a bunch of 2005 code samples in the MSDN which can be found in the link below

I haven't looked at it myself yet, as I am not using 05 just yet, but I imagine its the same set of samples, just updated using the 2.0 framework (perhaps differences in coding where they apply)

Edit: 11/11/2005. I will be removing some of the posts from here since this is such a valuable sticky to have in this forum. I will leave all posts related to trouble shooting, but I will be removing any of the posts like "thanks" or "just what I needed". Not that we at VBF don't like to hear those good words, but since this is a sticky we plan to leave around a while, we dont want it to get cluttered.
