For the most part, these chats focused on answering your questions about Visual Basic.<\/p>\n<p>Naturally, now that the Beta 1 for Visual Basic 2005 is available, I wanted to schedule some chats to answer your Beta questions. But after discussing this with Robert Green, we decided to change the format somewhat; instead of just answering questions, the chat hosts will also be looking for feedback about what you like (or don&#8217;t like) about the selected feature. <\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m very excited about this new approach of using the chat medium to get feedback, and I hope it works well for everyone. The chats we&#8217;ve set up delve deeply into many of the features that Visual Basic 2005 offers. <\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>Visual Basic 2005 Data Enhancements<\/strong><br \/>July 8, 2004, 8:00-9:00 AM PST (11:00 AM &#8211; Noon EST) Special early time!<br \/>Hosts: John Chen, Steve Stein, Karol Zadora-Przylecki, and Steve Lasker<\/p>\n<p><strong>Visual Basic 2005 Language Enhancements<\/strong><br \/>July 13, 2004, 1:00-2:00 PM PST (4:00 &#8211; 5:00 PM EST)<br \/>Hosts: Harry Kantamneni, Paul Vick, Alexandre Moura, Vladimir Sadov, and Gordon Brown<\/p>\n<p><strong>My in Visual Basic 2005<\/strong><br \/>July 15, 2004, 1:00-2:00 PM PST (4:00 &#8211; 5:00 PM EST)<br \/>Hosts: Cat Francis, Kevin Halverson, Jay Schmelzer, and Huy Nguyen<\/p>\n<p><strong>Visual Basic 2005 Deployment Enhancements<\/strong><br \/>July 20, 2004, 1:00-2:00 PM PST (4:00 &#8211; 5:00 PM EST)<br \/>Hosts: David Guyer, Mike Sampson, Patrick Baker, Elizabeth Newman, Sean Draine, and Todd Derksen<\/p>\n<p><strong>New Designers and Editor Enhancements for Visual Basic 2005<\/strong> <br \/>July 22, 2004, 1:00-2:00 PM PST (4:00 &#8211; 5:00 PM EST)<br \/>Hosts: Ed Smith, Jay Schmelzer, Stephen Weatherford, Sean Draine, and Mike Carter<\/p>\n<p><strong>Visual Basic 2005 Express Edition<\/strong><br \/>July 29, 2004, 1:00-2:00 PM PST (4:00 &#8211; 5:00 PM EST)<br \/>Hosts: Eric Gruber, Paul Yuknewicz, Jay Roxe, and Jonetta Taylor<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>To get more information about these chats, or to add a reminder about the chat to your calendar, please go to <a href=\"http:\/\/msdn.microsoft.com\/chats\/\">http:\/\/msdn.microsoft.com\/chats\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><em>Posted by: Jason Cooke, VB User Education.<\/em><\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For the past year, I&#8217;ve been organizing the Visual Basic chats that appear at http:\/\/msdn.microsoft.com\/chats\/.
