What is VB.NET (a small description)?

VB.NET: -

Some have started searching about it some haven't.
Then it is for those who haven't searched it.

It is a Microsoft created Object Oriented Programming language which incorporates features of Microsoft's .NET framework.
It cannot be thought as a sequel to VB 6.0 since it has a totally different language core.
There is also not backward & forward compatibility between VB 6.0 projects & code and VB.NET projects & code.
Since those who have think that VB & VB.NET are same, they quickly remove it from mind that there is no similarity except appearance of two characters VB in both.

VB.NET is used to create .NET applications, windows applications, etc.
This was designed with keeping Rapid Application Development in mind by providing several tools to shorten development time.

GUI: -
In this students can drag objects from toolbox into Work area, specify the properties & behavior of objects.
Student will not have to deal with trying to program using the User Interface.

Classes: -
VB.NET comes with thousands of built-in classes ready to be used.
So it is easier to use VB.NET than VB once we learn .NET framework.
