Hi, I know almost nothing about VB. I have spent a little time with .BAT having alot fun with it. I want to be more serious with my skill as a STARTING programmer and build a solid foundation to build on. I learn best from fallowing examples, and then re-doing it on my own, but when necessary, I am more than willing to learn textbook principals. I am a Freshman in HS, next year is the first year I will be allowed to take a full on programming course (It's Java), and I just wanted to prep. myself with some type of foundation to have a little bit of prior knowledge to build off of. I have tried starting my own little projects, and go to Youtube and such to find examples of programs to learn what does what (Teach myself basically). It seem it's too much for me to just "Dive In"(which I'm normally fine with), and to be 100% honest, I don't know where to start. I started by trying to create a simple program I call, "The Log". This is a personal KeyLogger for my personal use only, I have alot of questions, and can't find the answers to most of them. I mean, I get the basics, so I absolutely hate it when there's a person on a Tut., saying, "OK, now, you will need to click "New Project", in order to start making your new project.", or when it's SUPER NOOBY, for example, when you start VB 2008 Express, and it give you the start page with these annoying as hell guides. I mean I'm a very bright person (All Honors, no effort, A+)and when a guide is written for the average person, it bugs me alot! With all of that said, does anyone know guides that would be appropriate for me? BTW, I'm definitely visual!
