    Visual Basic Other Forum Suggestion

    Hi Guys,
    I have been reading a little bit in this forum , and I really enjoy reading some of the question, especially one that are resolved.

    I am wondering though if anyone could suggest other visual basic forum, that would be as active as this one.

    The reason for this is because, I am a beginner programmer, and a lot of the example are too advance for me to understand. so if I found another forum then the amount of example will be more, I can browse more, and study more from the bottom/ basic ones

    thank you very much for everyone's contributions
    looking forward for your suggestions

    Re: Visual Basic Other Forum Suggestion

    We have a wide range of topics and levels here - not everything is advanced.

    I'd recommend checking out our CodeBank forums, as they contain lots of working examples (rather than questions that may not have working answers), and possibly our sister site FreeVBCode.com (which is similar to our CodeBank).

    If you have problems understanding something from an example, feel free to post a question in the relevant forum (eg: VB6 and earlier), and people will try to explain. Don't worry about asking 'simple' questions, as all of us have had those - it is all part of the learning process (and as a bonus, more people can answer them).

    This site caters to all levels of programmers and programming from "I don't know how to spell VB" to the most advanced type topic conceivable.

    If you have a question, post it....if you don't understand the response, say so, but I'm very comforatable in saying that VBF is, indeed, your one stop programming shop.

    I haven't encountered any other forum with the activity level, and breadth of topics, as this one. There are a few others around, but they all seem to have some fairly strong limits.
