Adavanced Programming | | Notes on The Flower Box Template File:
The Flower Box: Below you will find the flower box template structure, which will be needed in your visual Basic assignments. This flower box is a basic asteriks structure that must be placed at the top of all of your programs that you will write to turn in. As you can see the first line begins with a single apostrophe. Following the single apostrophe is a line of asteriks (*), resembling a small frame or border. What you see in the yellow area is the flower box structure.

This flower box will display important information about the program like the name of the author (you), file name, date, and a purpose line. The file name can be one to eight characters in length. Remember to save your documents to your disk. You may use this page to code the information below (in yellow) or create a template file in word or the VB program called Flowerbox.

Where do you paste the Flower Box?
Below is a picture that shows where to paste the flower Box structure inside the console application window. Notice that it is between the beginning Module and the Sub Main(). You will need to complete the inside of the flowerbox structure for every program that you complete and turn in for a grade.
