{{seealso|Visual Basic}}

It was first released in [[1992]] by [[Microsoft]]. Visual Basic is a simple way to make programs for [[Microsoft Windows|Windows]]. It started as ''Project Ruby'' by Alan Cooper and then was sold to [[Microsoft]]. The system is built loosely on the original [[BASIC]] programming language released in [[1963]] and it can 'Test' programs in real-time, error checking them in a user-friendly way.

===.NET Framework===

This package is the '[[backbone]]' of Visual Basic .NET. When applications are created, the [[Microsoft Windows|Windows]] [[Installer]] includes the framework with it. It includes all the items needed to run the VB.NET applications that have been made.

==Editions==

Visual Basic was first released in [[May]] [[1991]] for [[Microsoft Windows|Windows]]. Many versions have been released since then. These are listed below:

===Visual Basic 2010 Express Edition===

This is a free version of Visual Basic 2010 released officially from [[Microsoft]]. It is aimed at encouraging more [[newbie]] programmers to try the series. The program can be downloaded from [http://www.microsoft.com/ Microsoft's Website].

==Controls==

Visual Basic .NET uses many controls which can be added to the forms or windows in the [[computer program|application]]. Other developers can create controls for applications, not just the ones that Microsoft include.

==Examples==

The following example makes a program window pop up that says "[[Hello World]]" and has a button that says "OK" used to close the window:

<source lang="vbnet">
Public Sub button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles button1.Click
MsgBox("Hello World")
End Sub
