    Closest thing to VB on Mac

    VB6 is the only programming language with which I am familiar. As far as I know, there are no versions of VB available for Apple Computers.

    My wife wants to make our house an all-Apple domain. My only objection is that I will no longer be able to tinker with Visual Basic programs at home (I am purely a hobby programmer).

    Is there an event-driven language similar to VB that is available for Mac computers? Or is it possible to use emulation software to run VB on an Apple platform?

    Try Xojo (formerly Realbasic).

    Yes. See Comparison of platform virtual machines.
    On Local Error Resume Next: If Not Empty Is Nothing Then Do While Null: ReDim i(True To False) As Currency: Loop: Else Debug.Assert CCur(CLng(CInt(CBool(False Imp True Xor False Eqv True)))): Stop: On Local Error GoTo 0
    Declare Sub CrashVB Lib "msvbvm60" (Optional DontPassMe As Any)
