Where Do I Get Visual Basic?

To complete any of our Visual Basic tutorials, you need to have a copy of Visual Basic installed on your computer. This is a separate product that must be purchased. The current version of Visual Basic 2008 (or the older Visual Basic 2005 can be used) can be purchased at many on-line stores.  We'd suggest Amazon.Com:

Buy from Amazon.com

You can use either the stand-alone Visual Basic 2008 product (the cheaper alternative) or the Visual Basic 2008 that is part of the Visual Studio 2008 suite.  We recommend Visual Studio 2008 Professional Edition for 'serious' programmers.  Although more costly, it has no limitations.  If you are a college student, you can usually purchase academic copies of Visual Basic 2008 and Visual Studio 2008 for a very low price.  Check with your bookstore.
