About the Technology:
Microsoft Visual Basic has the largest user base of any development language, currently estimated at 3.5 million professional programmers worldwide, and that base is continuing to grow. Although Visual Basic used to be considered a hobbyist's language, it has quickly gained the respect of serious developers and is now widely used in corporate and commercial environments. The amazing new features in Visual Basic .NET, such as powerful object-oriented capabilities, inheritance, and multithreading, will further push Visual Basic as a premier, enterprise-level development tool and draw more and more people to the language. In addition, the complex changes to Visual Basic in Visual Basic .NET will cause current Visual Basic programmers to rethink their programming strategies and methodologies and, essentially, learn a new language.
