By following these steps, you can disable the Start screen from applications within the Office 2013 suite including Excel, PowerPoint, and Word.

For example, changing this setting in Word will not carry over to Excel. You will have to configure the setting in each program to get rid of the Start screen for each respective application.

Prime Number Tester VB Progrom

In this program, I use the Select Case And Select statement to determine whether a number entered by a user is a prime number or not. 

Case 1- all numbers that are less tha 2 are prime. 

Case 2, if the number is 2, it is a prime number. In the last case, if the number N is more than 2, I need to divide this number by all the numbers from 3,4,5,6,........up to N-1, if it can be divided by any of these numbers, it is not a prime number, otherwise it is a prime number. I use a Do......Loop While statement to control the program flow. Here I also used a tag="Not Prime' to identify the number that is not prime, so that when the routine exits the loop, the label will display the correct answer.

Private Sub Command1_Click()
Dim N, D  As  Single
Dim tag As String

N = Val(TxtNumber.Text)

Select Case N
Case Is < 2
Lbl_Answer.Caption = "It is not a prime number"

Case Is = 2
Lbl_Answer.Caption = "It is a prime number"

Case Is > 2
D = 2
Do
If N / D = Int(N / D) Then
Lbl_Answer.Caption = "It is not a prime number"
tag = "Not Prime"
Exit Do
End If
D = D + 1

Loop While D <= N - 1
If tag <> "Not Prime" Then
Lbl_Answer.Caption = "It is a prime number"
End If
End Select
End Sub

Traffic Light Visul Basic Program

This Traffic Light program is a Visual Basic program designed by Ankit Jain that works like the actual traffic light. It is a nice little program. In this program, you have to insert one timer and set its interval according to your wish. Here I set it to 5000, which is equivalent to 5 seconds. Next you insert three shapes and set their shape properties to circle and fill the colors. There it goes, your traffic light is working!

The Code

Private Sub Timer1_Timer()
If Shape1.Visible Then

Shape2.Visible = True
Shape1.Visible = False
Shape3.Visible = False

ElseIf Shape2.Visible Then

Shape3.Visible = True
Shape2.Visible = False
Shape1.Visible = False

Else

Shape1.Visible = True
Shape2.Visible = False
Shape3.Visible = False

End If

End Sub
