In the Visual Basic documentation, a sample is a Visual Basic project you can load into Visual Studio and run. An example is a small block of code that demonstrates a single, limited programming task. A snippet is a block of code that is inserted in the Code Editor using the IntelliSense Code Snippet feature.
In addition to examining the samples listed below, you might want to look for samples available on Visual Basic Developer Center (http://msdn.microsoft.com/vbasic/).
These samples demonstrate project, user, and assembly tasks.
These samples demonstrate data access.
These samples demonstrate Visual Basic language concepts.
These samples demonstrate security tasks.
These samples demonstrate applications that interact with Windows operating-system components.
These samples demonstrate Windows Forms applications.
Explains how to install the sample databases used in the samples.
Describes the coding guidelines used to create the samples.
Blocks of code that you can insert directly into the Code Editor.
Applications written using the .NET Framework.
These samples highlight particular features of the .NET Framework.
Q: why can't I d/l all of them as a batch...?
Q: where is there a single, centralized listing of all samples...?
Q: where do I go to sign up for an alert whenever something new is added...?
please advise
