Hi Jim, I'm not Shaun, but I think what he meant is given the fact Microsoft no longer officially supports Visual Basic 6 on Vista, Win 7, and Windows 8 most developers have dropped it and have switched to something else. A lot of entry level programmers, for example, now use C#.NET or VB.NET for applications where a decade ago that roll was almost exclusively done in Visual Basic 6.
