   This group is for Visual Basic up to VB6.   
      
   If you're interested in later versions of Visual Basic, then use a   
   dotnet group, such as: microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb   
      
      
   Also try:

   http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-au/beginner/default.aspx   
      
   The "Forms over Data Video Series" here   
   http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/vbasic/bb466226.aspx?wt.slv=topsectionimg   
   is probably what you want.
