Anyone done any serious projects using Visual Basic? I've heard it's easy for beginners though.

Anyone done any serious projects using Visual Basic? I've heard it's easy for beginners though.
There are loads of commercial solutions that were made in pure vb, most of them old now though since most software houses have moved to the .net versions of the language.
I'm still working on commerical software that goes for 6 figures all written in VB6.
We have .NET versions of our products, but they are not selling well, so until they do, we continue to upgrade/enhance the versions that are selling.
It all depends on what your product is. There is little limitations that VB6 has from a fuctional point of view, you can do almost anything in it, the hardest part is having an idea that will be in demand.Quote:
