Visual Basic (VB) is a user-friendly, third-generation programming language developed by Microsoft in 1991. Widely recognized for its intuitive interface and rapid application development capabilities, VB gained popularity with Visual Basic 6.0—its most notable version before evolving into VB.NET.
Ideal for beginners, VB 6 allows easy development of Windows-based GUI applications with minimal coding effort. Visual Basic 6 also forms the core of VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the scripting language used to automate tasks in Microsoft Office applications such as Excel, Word, and PowerPoint.

What Readers Say
I have had his ebook but found that kindle makes it easy for me to read no matter what computer I am using and regardless of where I am at. Truly he takes you through the language and teaches you than surface teaching like the others do.
I like this style of learning. He makes the rules understandable while also showing you examples. Very glad I bought this book after looking at it online. It is very nice to have a book available while doing the programing.
I cannot believe how fast I was able to read and understand the tutorials. There was no theory to work through. There was nothing to slow down one's understanding of the things needed to get something done.
