    Hello
    I know this is going to sound stupid but can someone explain to me what sort of applications would be best suited to VB6. I'm just a begginer so I don't have much idea. I would be very grateful if someone could help me, as I feel programming is for me.

    I'm surprised youo have no received no replies for this one because there would seem to be a lot of experts frequenting this site, so anyway here is my contribution.

    VB (in my opinion) is best suited as a front end for databases. Using database software like Access or SQL Server in the background. For example applications that deal with customers stored on a database or something along those lines.

    Post Your question isn't stupid.

    Hi.

    What appeals to me about VB is that you can use it to easily make Windows-based applications. I mean, you can design something that looks like M$ did it.

    I have used VB as a front-end for databases, but I've also used it to make games, webbrowsers and other stuff.

    VB is a good first-language to learn, in my opinion, because it doesn't take much time at all to see the result of your efforts.

    All the best.
