The Visual Basic .NET Style Guide challenges Visual Basic .NET developers to seek a higher level of software professionalism. Using real code examples, author Tim Patrick demonstrates how to use a consistent programming style, so developers can create clean, readable code that's easy to maintain. Patrick also applies style to interface design, making software attractive and useful inside and out.
