Welcome to the PJG Creations Video Training Page.
One of the programming languages that PJG Creations use on a regular basis is VB.Net – A less common sister language of C#, but a major part of the Microsoft .Net stack.
Pete Gallagher began programming in BASIC during his childhood, then Visual Basic during the VB6 days, and migrated to VB.net when .Net Framework 1 was released in 2002.
You’ll find below a small selection of training videos giving you a brief introduction to VB.net, which I hope you’ll find useful.
