Integrating Flash with Microsoft VB.NET Part-1

Introduction:

Graphical User interfaces once used to be a non-important feature of corporate applications, the developers used to emphasize more on logic, efficiency & the time of development of the applications. They didn’t put much effort in creating a better user interface, this approach resulted in ugly looking application interfaces that where created after spending hundreds of hours of hard work and a very large amount of money. But now-a-days, good GUI does matter. For years, desktop applications have had very awkward looking dark blue or gray interfaces. This doesn’t mean that developers don’t want to create good looking applications.  Often the reason is, to create an appealing interface of any application, the developer has to do a lot of programming so that he can create some non-conventional interfaces. Even to create a star like button, a C/C++ developer has to write loads of C++ code to achieve the task.
