Is Visual Basic the same as Visual Studio 2008?

No. Visual Basic (for Applications), or VBA, is included as part of
Excel, Word, PowerPoint and the other Office applications.

Visual Studio is a separate product not part of Office that is used to
develop programs using languages like VB.NET or C#. Visual Studio is
quite expensive and not really geared for beginners.
