I finally got around to installing and registering (which is a pain in itself) the Visual Basic 2005 Express, and WOW what a change from good ol' VB4 & VB5, or VB6 for that matter.

The syntax has changed dramatically, even though there is an upgrade wizard that brings old projects into the new way of doing things. Still, I can't seem to get my simple ol' 'Hyperterminal'-wanna-be program to work right.

If I'm right, I need to pick up a Visual Basic 2005 (whether it be Express or not) Reference manual of some sort, not one for VB6...correct?
