Let me start off with a confession: I don't know much about Visual Basic.
However, I do know the basics of programming.
My goal is to make a countdown timer in a cool font, a custom size, and
custom color. A movie needs to be playing behind it, so the background
needs to be transparent.
The question is, do I need to purchase software to acomplish this? If so,
what software?
I have Microsoft Visual Basic 6.3 that came with Office 2003. However, I
couldn't figure out where to start.
I found a countdown timer:

It's not what I need, but I thought I could learn a bit by looking at it.
It has an executable (not much help), and several files with extensions I
have not seen before:
.vbw
.vbp
.SCC
.frm
I am afraid I am lost.
Although it would be nice to have help with the project, that's not really
what I am after. I think I just need a push in the right direction.
Thanks in advance,
Matthew
