✦ Synopsis

Just about everything we could write about Standard Visual Basic is in this book, and
that’s a lot of ground to cover. From language reference to ADO database
handling, from creating Web browsers to dragging and dropping data across
applications, from email applications to multimedia players, from creating
ActiveX controls and ActiveX documents to setup programs, it’s all here.
