As your VB knowledge improves, your need for better tools grows. VB includes the Object Browser, a tool that lets you inspect variables, controls, and other objects throughout your application. VB programmers new to the Object Browser often use it much more than they initially realize they will, because its features make programming with VB much simpler.
The Object Browser is a comprehensive online reference, but it's not online in the same sense as the online help reference. The Object Browser gives you a one-stop location to hunt for objects and object information, and to jump directly to the code you need to work with next.
The Object Browser describes your application's type libraries, which are the repositories of your class information. You can use the Object Browser to access all object properties, events, and methods for your application-including objects you've created.![]()
