VB tutorials in general & Tutorial on adding new fields to threads?

[Gutspiller]

You know how they say "Give a man a fish he eats for a day, teach a man to fish, he eats for a lifetime."

Well I was hoping somebody could writeup a tutorial that shows us noobie users how to create new fields inside their threads.

So instead of just subject and message we could have more. And how to create multiple ones as well. The hacks are ok, but I need something I can learn from, and while I can learn from hacks, I'm sure I could learn better if it was in a tutorial format that said what things are doing and explained it a little better. I know that I would be more willing to write VB hacks if I knew more about what I was doing. I have some really kick ass ideas for hacks and would be willing to make them, but I need some noobie direction first.

Anything like this possible?

I basically want to know how to create fields in threads so that I can create my own and the much needed VB review database. I figure if we had a tutorial though on creating new fields, the written text wouldn't be used to just copy and paste, but would be used for countless other hacks that people would create from reading the tutorial.
