firstly check if it is available precompiled for your system.

i think you are on ubuntu? (can't keep up with everyones systems sorry).

If so the debian packages will probably work:

http://packages.debian.org/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?keywords=gambas&searchon=names&subword=1&version=all&release=all

You would need to change some setup in ubuntu to put the debian sources in for 
the packaging tool apt-get. Thats a lesson someone else can give, but its not 
difficult.

I see the deb versions are 1.01 and the latest are 1.03, shouldn't be too big a 
difference. 

Oh and I correct myself, gambas is not a VB clone (the author makes that clear 
on his website) "Gambas is a free development environment based on a Basic 
interpreter with object extensions, like Visual Basic (but it is NOT a clone 
!)."
