<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">To give my students a reasonable understanding about implementing validation in VB.Net, I put together a resource on validation in VB.Net which I’ve included. This is mainly based from content from a free eBook

<p class="MsoNormal">Hey Guys,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’m just wondering to what level do the students need to implement validation into their programs for U4O1 in SD?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’m using VB.net as my programming language, and have done basic existence checking with the students so far (even some type checking – at least making sure that the input is a number – IsNumeric)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">How much further do I need to go with the students?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks <o:p></o:p></p>
