You have a choice of "original" VB (last version was 6) which you can probably pick up online somewhere, or the more recent "dot
NET" version, which I believe can be downloaded free (at least the "Express" version) from MS:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/vb/

Which one works for you will depend on your background and programming experience.
If coming from VBA, then VB6 will probably be easier to master, and still has some years to go before it's [completely] obsolete.

Both VB6 and VB.NET require other files to run. VB6 requires the VB6 Runtime
and VB.NET requires the Dot Net Framework 1.0 or 1.1 or 2.0.

Depending on what you want to do probably as already suggested . But you can
do some 'basic' things with VBS (Visual Basic Script). The interface for
writing vbs is your text editor.
