I once owned an LOL car, Japanese, IIRC <vbg. It got miserable mileage, so I
sold it.

I believe that MS licensed VBA to others--IIRC, AutoCad uses VBA, too.

Both VB and VB.net are stand alone applications which can create
precompiled
executable files (don't need Excel or any other program to run). VBA
is a
subset of VB6. It only works in conjuction with Office. VB.Net is
the
latestest version of Visual Basic. Essentially it is VB7. There are
more
differences between VB6 and VB.net than can be discussed on this
form. In a
nut shell VB.net is designed to work better with the other MS
developement
applications like C# and C++, as they all compile to similar source
code.
This means that VB6 code needs to be modified to complie under
VB.net (no
more changing the option base, error handling is drastically
changed, every
project must have a "Main" procedure...). Also VB.net is truely
object
oriented while VB6 is not (a little bit but not completely).

As Tom mentioned VB6 and VB.net can be purchased stand alone or as
part of
the MS Developer Suite (The same way you can purchase just Excel or
you can
purchase the entire office suite).
