Learning to Program with Visual Basic, 2nd Edition

This text is for Intro to Programming courses in CIS/MIS departments that use Visual Basic 6.0. Visual Basic has begun to replace COBOL as an introductory programming language for CIS/MIS students due to its ease of use and the near universal move to the Windows operating system. McKeown and Piercy's text addresses the need for a text that offers an adequate balance between the demonstration of the Visual Basic interface and teaching programming logic that the student must know regardless of the language. The goal of this book is "to achieve a balance between demonstrating the power and excitement of Visual Basic and the need to teach traditional programming logic."
