Controls
Lets move on to controls now since you got the basics for forms and their properties...
Start VB, after it's done loading, you should see the screen "New Project" (unless you have disabled that screen), and select Standard.EXE. After doing so you will be brought to VB's development environment. In the middle you have a gray window, which is what you will be developing on. It's called a Form (Form1 by default), on the left of that form you see a Toolbox window that has bunch of icons, which are called Controls. Controls are one of the things your project will consist of in it. To the right of "Form1" you should see two other windows, one is the Project Explorer, which holds all the forms (gray windows), and other important things we will get into later. The other window is the Properties window which holds the Form's and Control's properties in your project.
As you can see there are many controls, we will be working with the most common ones, including Command Buttons, Labels, Text Boxes & more...
