Windows Forms with C#.Net Course Outline
Duration: 5 Days
Objectives
This course will enable delegates to develop Windows applications using Visual Studio 2005. This includes creating customised forms and controls. It will also cover the C# programming language, using the principles of object orientated programming. Delegates will be able to access data from a database and update this from a Windows form.
Audience
This workshop is intended for software developers who have a desire to learn more about specific technology areas in Windows application development.
