24th October 2008

Today we looked at scope of variables. Read more about this subject in the textbook pages 103-106. Take a look at the coffee shop worked example at the end of chapter 4 to see a multi-procedure project using module-level variables and If statements.

We also covered the .visible and .enabled properties of objects. This will be useful to you in the project (see example in the class share folder). A key aspect of the project will be bringing all the things we have learned so far together to created a robust solution to the problem.

I forgot to mention in class that the project is worth 30% of the marks for the year. If you do well in it, not only will you have learned a lot about VB.Net, but you can pick up a significant amount of the year's marks. If you have any questions, feel free to email me at j.hayes (at) ucc.ie

Enjoy the bank holiday weekend. See you next Friday.
