Use Visual Studio to create a new project -- a Windows Form Application in Visual Basic.
Demonstrate what you have learned in these first two chapters of VB by designing a user interface that controls the order of the tabs, set the initial properties of form controls, and then modifies properties during execution by responding to a number of user initiated events.
At minimum, your form must include these controls:
2 text boxes,
1 picture box,
2 radio buttons,
1 check box,
3 command buttons,
enough labels to identify the purpose of the form controls,
ToolTip component
PrintForm component.
Additionally, write the code to provide the following functionality:
When the form loads -- display a messagebox to the user that greets them with a friendly "Hello Friend!"
Make one text box enabled, the other disabled. Code a command button so that whatever the user types in the first text box is displayed in the second text box and the first text box is cleared.
Have a check box that makes an image appear and disappear, or make it grow or shrink, or make it move left or right
Add tool tips for each command button so that when the user hovers on them, they provide a hint of what they will do
code a command button to print (preview) the form
set two radio buttons to color names -- when the user selects the radio button, have the background color of the form change to the color named
code a command button to close the form
add 3 creative features (adding controls and code as needed) to demonstrate your learning -- explore the text changed event, the got focus event
Test and debug your solution to ensure that it works properly.
