Having absolutley no programming knowledge at all, other than learning >Revolution, do I need to learn other things like Visual Basic, etc. "Need"? No. Having some programming experience could be *helpful* (particularly if it's with HyperCard, which is sort of Rev's "grandfather"), but it certainly isn't *necessary*.
>2. Is there a book that lays out the basic or fundmentals? Well, there's the documentation which comes with Revolution... but that is sometimes less than helpful for newbies (because, although what you need to know *is* in there, it's not always easy to *find*). What might be better, if not "best", is Dan Shafer's book called "Software at the Speed of Thought", which you can purchase directly from the Revolution website. >3. Would someone like to help tutor me? Not a problem. Ask, and I'll do my best to answer. _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [email protected] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
