rendering a square

So I properly foudn one tutorial on DX9 and vb.net and that was only how to initialize DX9. I couldn't find anything on how to render triangles or squares. So could someone take my example and make an example of how to render a square?

Depending on the release you have installed, you can find plenty of basic examples for rendering in your DirectX folders, for instance, one of the installed examples on my pc was put into:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft DirectX SDK (June 2006)\Samples\Managed\Direct3D\BasicHLSL_VBNET

C:\Program Files\Microsoft DirectX SDK (June 2006)\Samples\Managed\Direct3D\Tutorials

Honestly you might want to start there, Somewhere on your PC if you installed the DirectX SDK will be similar folders, and its pretty straight forward.

I choose June 2006 and stuck with it since it seemed to me to be the stable version of choice. (besides, it works very cleanly with Torque)

Check out the website http://www.vbprogramming.8k.com

That was really helpful when I was doing Dx9 programming with VB.Net
