      Well, maybe he uses VB and he is a programmer. But that doesn't mean he is a "VB programmer". ;)

      This statement is false.

            Designed and implimented a retail banking system in VB a few years back currently work on a trading platform with a lot of VB front end components. So yes, I can write VB, but I prefer Java or C# poking an eye out with a shitty stick [ftfms].

                  Well, if you are forced to use VB, you can always do like this:

                  Dim code;
                  code = "#include <stdafx.h>" & vbCRLF & _
                  "int main()" & vbCRLF & _
                  "{" & vbCRLF & _
                  " // ... " & vbCRLF & _
                  "}" & vbCRLF

                  ' TODO: RUN C Compiler

                      I think we need clarification on the direction of the dependency.

                              Yep, lots of trading software written in VB... Funny thing... If I hadn't put VB6 on my resume, back when I graduated college, I never would have gotten the job that started my career on wall street... Started out maintaining and updating old VB6 and Excel VBA systems... Then, once I had proven myself, I rewrote most of it in C# :)

                                      I think we need clarification on the direction of the dependency.

                                      Many programmers use several languages. The favorite language at home, the project language at work, some horrible languages for maintenance, and - in the worst case - VB for a job that was better than staying unemployed. That means, you can be a programmer, but still be forced to use VB.

                                      This statement is false.
