In VB2005, programs can be given a name as soon as they are started. The Command Button of VB6 is called a Button in VB2005, and its naming convention calls for the use of the prefix btn. The default name has changed from Command1 to Button1. In VB2005, the default name for a text box has been changed from VB6's Text1 to TextBox1. The Caption property for a button, form, or label in VB6 is called the Text property in VB2005 The Alignment property for a label or text box in VB6 is called the TextAlign property in VB2005. In VB2005, Shift + Ctrl + letter cannot be used to navigate the Properties window as was possible in VB6. In VB2005, the Name property of a form cannot be altered by just changing the contents of the settings box in the Properties window. (See Appendix B for details.) |
