Type the following code between the Sub and End Sub statements:

Text1.Text = "Hello World!"

After you type just "Text1", Visual Basic displays an Auto List Members drop-down list box as shown in the following figure. VB offers this drop-down list box so that you can select the property instead of typing the full property name.

Figure 4.2

Play Sound Select the property and press the spacebar, VB will automatically fill the property.

The event procedure should look like this:

1: Private Sub Command1_Click ()
2:   'Changes the text property of the text box
3:   Text1.Text = "Hello World!"
4: End Sub

I need your help

The above code simply changes the Text property of the Text Box named Text1 to read "Hello World!" when the button is clicked.

Line 2: is a remark. A remark is a comment inside a VB program that describes the code. Remarks start with a single apostrophe.
