VB in microsoft office
Hi
I just came across this statement in Sams teach yourself Visual BAsic in 21 days
microsoft Office also contains the complete Visual Basic 6 programming language with which you can automate microsoft Office applications
is that true?

it contains a vb language yes.
Its good for making office apps do stuff but you will have problems designing forms etc and will not look pro as it'll open within office...
But yes it is there.

You can make a Macro in MS Word, you put the VB/VBA code in the Macro. Tools > Macro > Create
Sub TEST()
MsgBox "Hello World"
End Sub

there is a difference between VBA in MS Word and regular VB6, You cant make exe files in MS word.

I dont think you understand the concept of windows programming.
VB = Windows only.
