Writing a Hello World Form
Getting started with Windows Forms is very simple. The following example displays a top level window (called a form) and sets the caption bar text to "Hello World".
Imports System
Imports System.ComponentModel
Imports System.Drawing
Imports System.Windows.Forms
Namespace Microsoft.Samples.WinForms.VB.SimpleHelloWorld
Public Class SimpleHelloWorld
Inherits System.Windows.Forms.Form
'Run the application
<STAThread()> Shared Sub Main()
System.Windows.Forms.Application.Run(New SimpleHelloWorld())
End Sub
Public Sub New()
MyBase.New()
Me.Text = "Hello World"
End Sub
End Class
End Namespace
