Is Visual Basic 6.0 still used?
VB6 is probably still widely used, but companies migrate to VB.NET. Moreover VB6 is so easy to learn that you can start using it really fast with no previous experience. I also work an Fortune 25 company with a world-wide presence and many legacy VB6 apps are still widely used through the company.
Is Visual Basic old?
Visual Basic was first released 29 years ago. The last stable release of VB6 (succeeded by VB.NET) was 22 years ago. It was retired by Microsoft, losing support, in 2008.
