Visual Basic Project 1

Goals of the project:

You will understand how to work in the VB environment, especially adding code to the CodeView, selecting and adding controls from the toolbox, and running your project in debug. You will be able to create a form and add several popular VB “controls” to it. You will be able to add functionality to the form to handle events like form click and button press. You will be able to code a simple algebraic calculation.

Create a project with the following features:

1. Implement functionality either for the form open or form click event: A messagebox opens displaying your name, and "VB project 1".
2.  Provide appropriate text (title) for your main form.
3.  Provide control components as follows, with these names (or other names that follow the VB naming convention): a label (lblPrompt), a textbox (txtInput), a button (btnGo),and a read-only textbox (txtAnswer).  Also provide Clear (btnClear) and Exit (btnExit) buttons and make them work.
4.  Make sure the label and button texts are set appropriately and the textboxes are (initially) blank.
5.  Provide functionality for the Fahrenheit to Celsius conversion to be performed when the Go button is clicked.
6.  Provide at least 1 comment for each line of declaration or code in your class.

Extra Credit:

· Implement tab ordering for your fields.

· Provide hotkeys for all buttons.

· Provide error checking for data entered (allow only numeric data)
