    Question newbie

    I am new to programming and have VB 6. Ok so where can I find a dictionary or something on the code the tutorials Ive seen all tell you make this form then do this then put in this code. Well I want to know where to learn the code the gui I can figure out playing with it. Also wrote a small prog and would like to know how do you put your own icon on it instead of the default that vb supplies?

    VB books

    OK I have a few books and they all tell me do this do that put this code here that makes this happen. Isnt there a book that can break down the language to make it easier to remmember. That cmd declare is used for blah blah blah and that in the code you have to say dim blah () string % blah blah blah thats what Im having a hard time figureing out. I hate jumping from book to book to find one declaration or what not because I havent memorized it yet. Thanks for input.

    To use your own icon on the form, change this property:

    Form1.Icon = "Your picture path goes here"

    For other stuff, browser vbworld.com and lots of other websites.

    Read lots of tutorials, books. First finish this tutorials, and then go to the vb section of http://www.maxcode.com. Download some books and tutorials from there, read them carefully, and then PRACTICE what you learn.

    I don't think, you need to work so hard to learn vb. It is from BASIC programming languages.
    I will look for some tutorials that start from completely beginnning, and then go on to other stuff
