My Name

Today I created a program which has my name and a menu called program. Under the menu the option appears called exit. When this option is clicked the program closes.

Hello World

To make the Hello, world bit I created a label using the toolbox. I then went into the properties window and changed the text in that label to say "Hello, world." You can use the toolbox window to add many objects which you can change the properties of using the properties window.

Hello, Welcome to the F Block Visual Basic Blog of Henry Gilbert

In 2013 I took a computer science course at BHS. At home I have a computer that I custom built which runs on Windows 7. I mainly use computers for various internet and scholarly things. By the end of this year I would like to have a good understanding of visual basic and coding in general. My best subject is Latin and my worst subject changes from time to time. This is all about me that one needs to know.
