Just wondering how you guys were introduced to VB 6 and if/why you decided to stay with the language.
For me it was the simplicity of the whole thing and the minimal coding requirements that made me want to stay with the langauge as long as I did. I was given the studio by a friend which is how I found the language.

Use VB 6 to take advantage of the object oriented features of the language, rather than concentrating on the simpler procedural aspects.

VB 6 is the high level event driven programming language.
With VB 6, you can create any program depending on your objective. For example, if you are a college or university lecturer, you can create educational programs to teach business, economics, engineering, computer science, accountancy , financial management, information system and more to make teaching more effective and interesting. If you are in business, you can also create business programs such as inventory management system , point-of-sale system, payroll system, financial program as well as accounting program to help manage your business and increase productivity. For those of you who like games and working as games programmer, you can create those programs as well.

What is Visual Basic?
VISUAL BASIC is a high level programming language which evolved from the earlier DOS version called BASIC. BASIC means Beginners' All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code. It is a very easy programming language to learn. The code look a lot like English Language. Different software companies produced different versions of BASIC, such as Microsoft QBASIC, QUICKBASIC, GWBASIC ,IBM BASICA and so on. However, people prefer to use Microsoft Visual Basic today, as it is a well developed programming language and supporting resources are available everywhere. Now, there are many versions of VB exist in the market, the most popular one and still widely used by many VB programmers is none other than Visual Basic 6. We also have VB.net, VB2005, VB2008 and the latest VB2010. Both Vb2008 and VB2010 are fully object oriented programming (OOP) language.
VISUAL BASIC is a VISUAL and events driven Programming Language. These are the main divergence from the old BASIC. In BASIC, programming is done in a text-only environment and the program is executed sequentially. In VB, programming is done in a graphical environment. In the old BASIC, you have to write program code for each graphical object you wish to display it on screen, including its position and its color. However, In VB , you just need to drag and drop any graphical object anywhere on the form, and you can change its color any time using the properties windows.
On the other hand, because the user may click on a certain object randomly, so each object has to be programmed independently to be able to response to those actions (events). Therefore, a VB Program is made up of many subprograms, each has its own program code, and each can be executed independently and at the same time each can be linked together in one way or another.

. NET is gaining ground fast, VB 6 remains a very popular programming environment. But even if it wasn't as great as it is, if you're new to Visual Basic and you have a copy available, it's still a great place to start learning about programming! But problem is that microsoft never sell vb. There's no reason why you can't continue to use VB 6 for as long as you want to however. Microsoft will support the VB 6 environment even on the very latest Vista operating system scheduled to be introduced in 2007.
A lot of very talented programmers think that VB 6 is still the best development environment.

Visual Basic is a highly popular language in the commercial world because it allows for the rapid development of Windows based programs. VB is particularly strong at creating front ends for databases. This can be done in amazing time through the use of wizards. This page does not cover all aspects of VB, it does not show how to do the basics like layout a form, neither does it cover all the built in functions, as there is already plenty of help provided for these, and a lot of it is self-evident.
A more limited version of Visual Basic is also included in several other Microsoft Applications such as MS Access. Most of the information here applies to that version.
