Chapter 4 progress: 1

I almost completed chapter 4. I ran into an issue. My book gives instructions in visual basic. I have it set up to run with visual c#. I am having problems validating the date data because my program won't run the VB commands and I don't know the c# commands to make it work. I will have to do some research into c# and get a c# book before I can finish this chapter.

Thanks,

Alex

Progress Update

I got the c# book and found c# to be less useful to me. The dummies book I am using goes into great detail on how visual basic works and how I can use it. I have found that visual basic has many build in functions that make it much more efficient to use, for now, for this class.

Moving forward I would learn c# separately and write and keep a compilation of many good classes and their methods I write so that I can just search them and pop em into my .net work.
Such as data validation methods in a data validation class. But that is a whole other idea altogether.

  1. I agree with your idea to keep to one language rather than moving back and forth between them.
