 Properties, Events, and Methods
 
 ■ Visual Basic is a development system especially designed for creating
   form-based applications. One aspect of form design in Visual Basic is the
   ability to manipulate an object's appearance and behavior.
 
 ■ In addition to traditional language elements, Visual Basic provides you
   with new tools to develop form-based applications:
   • Properties define the appearance and behavior of forms and controls.
     See: ◄Properties Summary►
   • Events detect and respond to actions.
     See: ◄Object Events Summary►
   • Methods tell an object to perform certain actions.
