In this tutorial, we will familiarize you with the Visual Basic environment.

Microsoft VSS helps you manage your projects, regardless of the file type (text files, graphics files, binary files, sound files, or video files) by saving them to a database. When you need to share files between two or more projects, you can share them quickly and efficiently. When you add a file to VSS, the file is backed up on the database, made available to other people, and changes that have been made to the file are saved so you can recover an old version at any time. Members of your team can see the latest version of any file, make changes, and save a new version in the database.
