I've noticed that a lot of posts are from newbies asking about getting started so I decided to post a
few of the URLS which I have used whilst trying to learn VB/eVB programming:

This site - vbnet - is a developers resource centre, I found some great windows style animations
here which can be used on your form when uploading/downloading etc.
Also, a lot of the tutorials are fairly basic and well written
http://vbnet.mvps.org/index.html?code/avi/index.html

Although some of it is a bit cryptic, the MSDN Library can be usefull if you refine your search:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/

A wealth of resources for any skill level: Planet-Source-Code.com

For anyone not sure of the syntax when constructing a connection string for a database, this site does exactly what it says on the tin:
www.connectionstrings.com

And a nice tutorial to SQL: http://www.firstsql.com/tutor2.htm

Also, check out Gary Beenes Visual Basic Information Centre, which includes some great freeware

Like I said, I also use eVB for Pocket PC, anyone interested in finding out how
to get started programming for handheld devices should check out the best eVB resource on the net:
