Mission Statement:

The Visual Basic- Online User's Group is a non-profit venture of beginner to intermediate Visual Basic Professional Users who want to increase their programming skills and knowledge about Visual Basic in a variety of programming areas.  We welcome and encourage you to browse, as well as submit your helpful tips and your own unique solutions to programming 'challenges'. We welcome comments, suggestions. We're here to help each other learn more about Visual Basic. We do not represent or "plug" anyone's particular products, so we are an equal opportunity beta site for beginner to intermediate oriented materials. We welcome you to stop by and browse. A majority of those who stopped by to leave us a response tell us their primary interests are math and science applications. Without going into the variety of scientific disciplines which have drawn us to Visual Basic to develop specific tools which developers can not affordably develop for (due to the small installed user base), many of us have gone beyond using our spreadsheets and now turn towards developing our own applications to make our jobs easier. Graphics and graphing information were expressed as a current need.
