Presidential veto.

I always thought a presidents veto could stop something from eventuating, like if a bill was put through and the president disagreed strongly enough, his power of veto could stop it passing into law.. Now I see in the news today that Obama vetoed something, but his veto was overruled by congress..

Can someone explain to us how the veto works, or doesn't in simple terms please, I know I'm one that's a little.. confused about the presidents veto powers and how they either work or don't..
