There’s a lot of reasons why this programming language had skyrocketed to its fame and success, but the most important of them all was its convenience and practicality to its users.

All you had to do was double-click it within the design environment and write your preferred code and command. It offered the newest features back then including the ability to create buttons for your programs by merely drawing it on the surface of your program’s window.

Visual Basic is a third-generation event-driven programming language developed especially for Microsoft’s Component Object Model (COM) programming model. The most classic programming tool in the marketĮven if a lot of modern programmers are now using popular tools instead of Visual Basic, the truth is it will not easily disappear and will stay for a few more decades in the market. After almost three decades, will its stay as grand as it is in the 1990s or will it be forgotten and overlooked without a hint of the future?

You may still remember the good old days of utilizing not just any BASIC language but Microsoft`s groundbreaking QuickBASIC which lets you write code without the hassle of clunky line numbers, catch syntax errors quickly as you type, and launch your program straight from the development environment without the need of nonsense command line.

The history behind Microsoft's classic and traditional programming language started when the company released Windows replacing their ancient DOS operating system.
