VB Language

I have really never played around with VB or VS. Anyone of you fine folks want to recommend a good book for me to read. When Firewing is released, I would certainly hate to be the last cowboy out of the shoot. 8-)

It's a pretty easy language to use. I'm not sure I could recommend a book, but I would recommend you take a look here:

Majenko has done a great job of converting these pages into PDF so you can print it out, if required. If you have any questions on the Firewing language, then please do post - I woukd be happy to help.

Thanks David
I had read and forgotten about Matt's PDF file. That will work great as I can load that into my Kindle. I may also need to pull my head out of another form of PC Basic and the Windows API. ;)

BTW - Thanks Matt for the PDF.

If you have any questions on the Firewing language, then please do post

Ok, I've got one. Since we have new data types, how about filling in Appendix C (Types, Modifiers and Constants).

Also, any thoughts about adding data types > 32 bits, like a Long int or Double float?
