I agree with quite a few of you here; C++ and VB are very different languages and each one should be used as appropriate. VB was my first language (well, BASIC is the language) followed - 18 months later - by C++.
90% of the programs I write now are in C++. I rarely use VB except to write GUI front-ends for programs I have written in other languages when I can't be arsed to write a GUI in MFC / win32api / gtk or whatever.
In my opinion it plain boils down to what your program is trying to acheive.
I dislike VB...but it does have it's strengths - it's simple to get an app going and it doesn't give you as much bother as C++.
This makes it good as a prototype tool. I'm writing a front end for a database right now. I decided to write it in VB first as I can fly through it and spot problems quickly (without having to also worry about my code).
Also, if I'm writing an activeX object in C++, I use VB to test it as it's simple to get going and doesn't distract me from the task at hand.
On the other hand I spent 2 years working for a firm that used a VB written front end to an Oracle DB, and that was awful - very slow, unresponsive and a total resource hog. Maybe this was due to the coding (AFAIK the service from the database was fine), but it was such a pig to use that it's made me sware of VB for full scale apps forever.
That would depend on which version you are talking about: version 6 or .NET.Originally Posted by C+noob
not really... anything VB can do can be done in C++Originally Posted by Frobozz
note that it may be easier to do some things in VB, but AFAIK, there's nothing that can be done in VB that can't be done with C++.
