PLEASE NOTE: This is not a complete seminar. This was
initially recorded as a six-part series, but we only captured the first
two hours of the video. So you will hear the instructor refer to "future
lessons" that do not exist. However, if you are looking to learn
beginner VB, these first two hours are actually very good and
will give you a great understanding of the fundamentals of VB and
programming.
Also, this seminar was recorded from a LIVE webcast
event. The quality of the video is not up to the high standards of our
normal 599CD courses. There are a couple of skips and short blackouts
during this video, but it is still very instructional.
