Procedures and Subroutines are an essential part of programming in any language as they can be used to execute sections of code (along with variable parameters in the case of procedures) from any part of the running program. This makes programming easier as the entire program can then be broken down.
This section provides reference information for various aspects of the Visual Basic language.
