You'd be suprised how many companies use VB6 for... for everything. Now its shifting towards using .NET, mainly VB.NET although some old VB6 programmmers are migrating to C#. I believe Java is not used widely outside of universities. C# is the way to go and it will prove even more evident with Longhorn.
