CCP-503.2 1
Objective

 Understand various Project applications

 Know the visual Basic working Environment

CCP-503.2 2
Recap
In the previous period we have discussed
about
 Basics of Visual Basic
 Features and Application of VB
 Different components of Integrated Development
Environment (IDE)

CCP-503.2 3
Project Applications
 Standard Exe
 ActiveX Exe
 ActiveX DLL
 ActiveX Control

CCP-503.2 4
Standard EXE Project

 It is typical application for learning edition

 User usually creates application in this Project by
using Form

CCP-503.2 5
Standard EXE Project

CCP-503.2 6
ActiveX EXE Project
 It is typical application for professional edition
 It is called as on out – of – process server which
runs as a separate process
 A single EXE server can service multiple clients
 More efficient in allocation of resources
 Exchanging information between servers is slow
process

CCP-503.2 7
ActiveX EXE Project

CCP-503.2 8
ActiveX DLL Project
 Is an in – process server
 DLL is loaded in the same address space as the
client executable that calls the server and runs
on the same thread as the client
 ActiveX DLL are faster as they become part of
the application that uses them

CCP-503.2 9
ActiveX DLL Project

CCP-503.2 10
 ActiveX Control (Formerly known
as OLE control)
 It is a reusable software component that supports a
widely different variety of OLE functionality
 Contains information VB needs to provide new features
and controls to your applications tool bar and the
extension is .ocx
 Developers can create components in any programming
language with ActiveX Control
 We can integrate them with any Scripting language
 We can run those components from any type of
application including web browser business application

CCP-503.2 12
Visual Basic Working Environment

 Working Environment of VB can be customized

according to the taste and requirements of the
programmer
 To access the customization tools, Choose
Tools -> Options to open the Options dialog box

CCP-503.2 13
Options Dialog Box

CCP-503.2 14
Editor Tab

 It is used to customize the behavior of the code

and project windows

CCP-503.2 15
Editor Tab

CCP-503.2 16
Editor Format Tab

 It is used to get the attributes for the type of text

selected
 It is used to display code color list to appear in
the code window

CCP-503.2 17
Editor Format Tab

CCP-503.2 18
General Tab

 It can specify settings of the grid

 Error - tapping
 Compile options for the current page

CCP-503.2 19
General Tab

CCP-503.2 20
Docking Tab

 It is useful to specify which window will be

dockable

CCP-503.2 21
Docking Tab

CCP-503.2 22
Environment Tab

 It can specify settings of the grid

 Error - tapping
 Compile options for the current page

CCP-503.2 23
Environment Tab

CCP-503.2 24
Advanced Tab
 Used to load the projects in the background
 To modify the changes in shared project items to
work in MDI

CCP-503.2 25
Advanced Tab

CCP-503.2 26
