   Help Needed Basic Language Statements

   XPost: comp.lang.basic.visual   
   From: gonor@adelphia.net   
      
   I have done a lot of programming some time ago using Fortran and various   
   varieties of the Basic programming languages, Hewlett Packard Technical   
   Basic, QBasic, Quick Basic.   
      
   With each of these languages there were documents (books, etc) which   
   categorized and explained all of the functions, statements, etc. and how to   
   use them.  The documents explained the logic of the statement or function   
   and provided examples.   
      
   Also most of the books categorized the statements/functions by use:  such as   
   branching, conditional branching, mathematical functions, loops, etc.   
      
   My problem is that I can find no reference to the Basic Language   
   commands/statements/functions within Visual Basic.  I have three books, two   
   of which are from Microsoft and one from QUE.   
      
   Perhaps one of you can direct me to a link, a book, or other reference to   
   the valid Basic Statements/Functions/Commands to write the programming code   
   between the lines of Visual Basic object code.
