Happy Belated 20th Birthday of Visual Basic

It was Visual Basic 6 which impressed me a lot when I first learned it due to its features of rapid application development. Although it did not provide fully functional object orientation, with OLE (Object Linking and Embedding) and ActiveX, it did an awesome job.

Later, with the advent of .NET framework, Visual Basic has grown up into the full-fledged OO Language. Yes, it is still growing up and becoming better and better.

Happy Birthday, VB!
