Visual Basic .NET is missing the referenced sample project files (321425)



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Visual Basic .NET (2002)

This article was previously published under Q321425

SUMMARY

After you install Microsoft Visual Basic .NET Standard Edition, you are not able to find the sample projects referred to in the "In Action" sample booklet included with this program.

MORE INFORMATION

This booklet was intended as a sample reference to the Step-By-Step series publication, Microsoft Visual Basic .NET, published by Microsoft Press.

For more information, see page 4 of the sample booklet. It states that the companion CD-ROM is not included.

However, if you do not read page 4 and instead proceed directly to page 9, the contents of page 9 are misleading: There is a reference to sample projects, which are available on the companion CD-ROM (which is not included). There is also a reference to a nonexistent chapter, which would provide information about how to install the sample projects.
