Two Books In One: LEARN FROM SCRATCH VISUAL BASIC .NET WITH MYSQL
BOOK 1: VISUAL BASIC .NET AND DATABASE: PRACTICAL TUTORIALS This book aims to develop a MySQL-driven desktop application that readers can develop for their own purposes to implement library project using Visual Basic .NET. In Tutorial 1, you will build a Visual Basic interface for the database. This interface will used as the main terminal in accessing other forms. This tutorial will also discuss how to create login form and login table. You will create login form. Place on the form one picture box, two labels, one combo box, one text box, and two buttons. In Tutorial 2, you will build a school inventory project where you can store information about valuables in school. The table will have nine fields: Item (description of the item), Quantity, Location (where the item was placed), Shop (where the item was purchased), DatePurchased (when the item was purchased), Cost (how much the item cost), SerialNumber (serial number of the item), PhotoFile (path of the photo file of the item), and Fragile (indicates whether a particular item is fragile or not). In Tutorial 3, you will perform the steps necessary to add 5 new tables using phpMyAdmin into Academy database. You will build each table and add the associated fields as needed. Every table in the database will need input form. In this tutorial, you will build such a form for Author table. Although this table is quite simple (only four fields: AuthorID, Name, BirthDate, and PhotoFile), it provides a basis for illustrating the many steps in interface design. SQL statement is required by the Command object to read fields (sorted by Name). Then, you will build an interface so that the user can maintain the Publisher table in the database (Academy). The Publisher table interface is more or less the same as Author table interface. This Publisher table interface only requires more input fields. So you will use the interface for the Author table and modify it for the Publisher table. In Tutorial 4, you will perform the steps necessary to design and implement title form, library member form, and book borrowal form. You start by designing and testing the basic entry form for book titles. The Title table has nine fields: BookTitle, PublishYear, ISBN, PublisherID, AuthorID, Description, Note, Subject, and Comment. Then, you will build such a form for Member table. This table has twelve fields: MemberID, FirstName, LastName, BirthDate, Status, Ethnicity, Nationality, Mobile, Phone, Religion, Gender, and PhotoFile). You need thirteen label controls, one picture box, six text boxes, four comboxes, one check box, one date time picker, one openfiledialog, and one printpreviewdialog. You also need four buttons for navigation, six buttons for controlling editing features, one button for searching member’s name, and one button to upload member’s photo. Finally, you will build such a form for Borrow table. This table has seven fields: BorrowID, MemberID, BorrowCode, ISBN, BorrowDate, ReturnDate, and Penalty. In this form, you need fourteen label controls, seven text boxes, two comboxes, two date time pickers, and one printpreviewdialog. You also need four buttons for navigation, seven buttons for other utilities, one button to generate borrowal code, and one button to return book. BOOK 2: LEARN FROM SCRATCH VISUAL BASIC .NET WITH MYSQL This book will teach you with step-by-step approach to develop from scratch a MySQL-driven desktop application that readers can develop for their own purposes to implement school database project using Visual Basic .NET. In Tutorial 1, you will perform the steps necessary to add 8 tables using phpMyAdmin into School database that you will create. You will build each table and add the associated fields as needed. In this tutorial, you will also build login form and main form. In Tutorial 2, you will build such a form for Parent table. This table has thirteen fields: ParentID, FirstName, LastName, BirthDate, Status, Ethnicity, Nationality, Mobile, Phone, Religion, Gender, PhotoFile, and FingerFile). You need fourteen label controls, two picture boxes, six text boxes, four comboxes, one check box, one date time picker, one openfiledialog, and one printpreviewdialog. You also need four buttons for navigation, six buttons for other utilities, one button for searching member’s name, one button to upload parent’s photo, and button to upload parent’s finger. Place these controls on the form. In Tutorial 3, you will build such a form for Student table. This table has fifteen fields: StudentID, ParentID, FirstName, LastName, BirthDate, YearEntry, Status, Ethnicity, Nationality, Mobile, Phone, Religion, Gender, PhotoFile, and FingerFile). You need sixteen label controls, two picture boxes, six text boxes, five comboxes, one check box, two date time pickers, one openfiledialog, and one printpreviewdialog. You also need four buttons for navigation, seven buttons for controlling editing features, one button for searching parent’s name, one button to open parent form, one button to upload student’s photo, and one button to upload student’s finger. In Tutorial 4, you will build a form for Teacher table. This table has fifteen fields: TeacherID, RegNumber, FirstName, LastName, BirthDate, Rank, Status, Ethnicity, Nationality, Mobile, Phone, Religion, Gender, PhotoFile, and FingerFile). You need an input form so that user can edit existing records, delete records, or add new records. The form will also have the capability of navigating from one record to another. You need sixteen label controls, one picture box, seven text boxes, five comboxes, one check box, one date time picker, one openfiledialog, and one printpreviewdialog. You also need four buttons for navigation, six buttons for controlling editing features, one button for searching teacher’s name, and one button to upload teacher’s photo. In Tutorial 5, you will build a form for Subject table. This table has only three fields: SubjectID, Name, and Description. You need four label controls, four text boxes, one openfiledialog, and one printpreviewdialog. You also need four buttons for navigation, secen buttons for utilities, and one button for searching subject name. Place these controls on the form. You will also build a form for Grade table. This table has seven fields: GradeID, Name, SubjectID, TeacherID, SchoolYear, TimaStart, and TimeFinish. You need to add seven label controls, one text box, four comboxes, and two date time pickers. You also need four buttons for navigation, seven buttons for controlling editing features, one button to open subject form, and one button to open teacher form. In Tutorial 6, you will build a form for Grade_Student table. This table has only three fields: Grade_StudentID, GradeID, and StudentID. You need an input form so that user can edit existing records, delete records, or add new records. The form will also have the capability of navigating from one record to another. You need two label controls and two comboxes. You also need four buttons for navigation, seven buttons for controlling editing features, one button to open grade form, and one button to open student form.
