Objects and Basic Codes

Objects and Basic Codes

Objects are combination of
codes and data that Visual
Basic considers as single
units.
Forms, Command Buttons, Labels,
etc. are examples of objects in
Visual Basic

Objects and Basic Codes

Each has a different set of
properties that you can modify. For
instance, all objects have the
property, which tells you the name
of the object, or how the computer
identifies it. But only the dropdown
List Box has the property List,
which gives you the file source from
which it gets its options.

Objects and their

Properties

Property Types of an Object

You can choose to modify the
properties of an object to
change its look in your
program. They can be classified
into six types, based on how
you can edit these properties.

Boolean Value Property

This property type is set to
options that are answerable
only by true of false.
Examples: Enabled, Visible,
Multiline, Moveable,
AutoRedraw, and Clip Controls.

Predefined Value Property

This property type consists of
choices with-in the drop-down
list box with a corresponding
value and function.
Examples: Appearance,
BorderStyle, Value, Alignment,
MousePointer, andBackStyle

String Value Property

This property type allows you
to encode new data.
Examples: (Name), Caption,
PasswordChar, Text, Index, and
Tag

Hexadecimal Value Property

This property is set to color
options.
Examples: BackColor, ForeColor,
FillColor, MaskColor, and
BorderColor

Filename Property
This property type allows you
to import a file or files.
Examples: Icon, Picture, Font,
MouseIcon, Palette, and
DataFormat.

Size Property
This property type allows you
to set the new size of an
object.
Examples: Height, ScaleWidth,
Width, ScaleTop, DrawWidth, and
ScaleHeight.

Events

Events
An event is a message that is sent
out by an object announcing that
something has happened.
When a user does a certain action to
an object in a Visual Basic program,
the computer responds with an
appropriate output based on what the
function of the object is.

Events
To signal this output in your
program, you must write (in
code) an event procedure that
is associated with an object.

Parts of a Visual Basic

Statement

Parts of a Visual Basic Statement

The Visual Basic program
statement is a line of code
that consists of the object
name, property, and value.
ObjectName.Property = Value

Parts of a Visual Basic Statement

Object Name refers to the objects
assigned name in the project.
Property refers to the associated
property to be edited or changed in
a object.
Value is the assigned value for the
corresponding property.
The equal sign is used to assign an
item; it may be a number or a
string.

Form1.BackColor = vbBlue
Object Name Property

Value

The statement above involves changing the

appearance of a form, which is Form1. Its
background color (BackColor) is to be
changed to blue (vbBlue).

Software
Piracy
CRAFT
FAIR

Software Piracy
Software piracy
refers to the
unauthorized
duplication and
use of computer
software.

Basic Software Piracy Terminology:

Cloning - Ideas can not be copy protected,
and unfortunately some software developers
choose to "clone" other applications
rather than creating their own.
Crack - A software crack is an illegally
obtained but working version of the
software, which circumvents the software's
copyright protection. Software cracking
refers to the modification of software in
order to remove encoded copy prevention.
Distribution of cracked software is
generally an illegal act of copyright
infringement.

 Cracker - An individual that undertakes

disabling software protection, either for
fun or financial gain.
Hack - The classic and somewhat innocent
definition of hack used to be just "a
clever workaround". The term now has a
much more negative connotation, and
usually refers to working around the copy
protection of an application for the sole
purpose of creating an illegal version of
the software. While not always the case, a
hack could be a fix, or a bug workaround.

 Hacker - One who hacks. The original

definition was "a clever
programmer", but the term has since
come to mean someone who tries to
break into computer systems or
protected software.
Hardware Locking - A method of
protecting software from duplication
by locking the software license to a
specific piece of computer hardware,
such as the hard drive it is
installed on, so that it will not
function on any other computer.

 KeyGen Or Key Generators - a KeyGen (short

for Key Generator) is a small program that
will generate an unauthorized but working
registration key or serial number for a
piece of software. It is typically used to
circumvent copy protection and create an
illegal version of a software application.
Serials - Usually refers to illegally
obtained registration keys or "serial"
numbers that unlock a downloadable
evaluation version of a product.
Warez - Another term for a software crack.

Types Of Software Piracy

1. It is illegal to use a single-licensed version
on multiple computers.
2. It is illegal to preloaded software on computers
without providing the appropriate licenses.
3. It is illegal to use a key generator to generate
a registration key that turns an evaluation
version into a licensed version.
4. It is illegal to use a stolen credit card to
fraudulently purchase a software license.
5. It is illegal to post a licensed version of a
software product on the Internet and make it
available for downloading.

In determining whether the use made of a work in any particular

case is fair use, the factors to be considered shall include:

(a) The purpose and character of the use,

including whether such use is of a
commercial nature or is for non-profit
educational purposes;
(b) The nature of the copyrighted work;
(c) The amount and substantiality of the
portion used in relation to the
copyrighted work as a whole; and
(d) The effect of the use upon the potential
market for or value of the copyrighted
work.

Expressions and
Arithmetic Operators

Arithmetic Operators
Are used to indicate operations such
as addition, subtraction, division,
multiplication, exponentiation,
integer division, integer remainder
and modulus.
These operators are used to connect
number constants an nonnumeric
variables to form arithmetic
expressions

Variables, Constants,
and Data Types

What is a Variable?
A variable refrences a memory
location which can contain any
type of data. And the size of
the emmory allocates depends on
the type of data stored in it.

Naming Variables
A variable must begin with a letter of the
English alphabet
The reserved words or code words cant be
used as variable names (e.g. Then, For,
Len, Case, End, Mid, etc)
A variable name should not exceed 255
letters and can only use letters, numbers,
and the underscore character
Spacing in variable names is invalid (e.g.
Your School, Full Name, etc...)

Constants
It is a value that cannot and
should not be altered by the
program and is a set value for
a certain data within a
program.
These are declared
indifferently

Numeric and Nonnumeric

Variable Types
Numeric Variables are variables that
can be mathematically manipulated
These are expressed as Integer,
Long, Single, Double, and Currency
Nonnumeric Variables are variables
that cant be mathematically
manipulated
These are expressed as String,
Boolean, Date, and Variant

Strings and Concatenation

Used to represent nonnumeric information
such as gender, status, name, address, and
the like. They are always entered in code
inside quotation marks.
String Concatenation is the process of
combining two or more strings into one
single string. You can se either the
ampersand (&) or the plus sign (+)
e.g.

Word1=hello

Word2=world

Word1 & & Word2

hello world

Computer Virus

Computer Virus
A computer is a program maliciously
written with the intention of entering a
computer system without the users
permission or knowledge. Such codes hide
in computer programs or on the boot sector
of storage devices such as hard-disk
drives and other portable storage devices.
A virus has the ability to replicate
itself and may affect other programs or
system performance.

Types of Viruses
There is a variety of computer
viruses. Computer viruses can
be classified according to the
techniques, types of files they
infect, where they hide, or the
kind of damage they cause. Some
of these viruses are classified
as follows:

Personal Digital Assistants (PDA)

Viruses
As the development of
technology on PDAs continues,
new breeds of viruses have
spawned. Malicious programmers
have taken advantage of the
PDAs ability to communicate.
With other devices and run
programs.

Boot Sector Viruses

These types of viruses infect the DOS boot
sector or the Master Boot Record of a PC.
Infection is done by substituting their
code, thus overwriting it. The MBR is a
small program that runs every time the
computer starts up. Therefore, when the
computer loads the operating system
through infected boot records, the viruses
also load into the memory. From the
memory, the boot viruses can spread to
every disk that the system reads.

Macro Viruses
A virus that is created by
using a built-in macro
programming language, designed
to execute as soon as the file
is opened. It attaches itself
to a document file and waits
until an application like MS
Word or MS Excel opens it.

Worms
These are computer programs that are
characterized by their ability to copy
themselves from machine to machine. They
are deigned to self-replicate and spread
without any user influence. When a file
that contains a worm is opened, it starts
spreading through networks and emails
immediately. The main purpose of a worm
attack is to bring down systems and
networks by consuming great amounts of
bandwidth and memory.

Trojan Horses
These programs disguise themselves
as legitimate programs such as game
or utility. Trojan horse programs
often look and initially act like
legitimate programs, but once they
are executed, they can destroy or
scramble data. Different from other
viruses, Trojans do not replicate
themselves as fast as viruses do.

Bombs
These are pieces of code
intentionally inserted into a
software that will set off a
malicious function when specified
conditions are met. Such conditions
Can either be logical or timed.
Malicious software often contains
bombs that execute a certain
payload. Many viruses attack their
host system on specific dates, thus
called time bombs.
