Well if your writing an application to run under Windows you would use Visual Basic.<br />
<br />
But if you want to add extensions to Word/Excel you would use VBA.<br />
<br />
With web pages (ASP, Client Side Script) you HAVE to use VBA.<br />

I am going to be building an application in VBA soon.<br />
I've used VB a bit and VBSript quite a bit. &nbsp;I really don't <br />
know how much different VBA is from VB. &nbsp;Does anyone know of any good sites that talk about the differences? &nbsp;Especially,<br />
I'd be interested in good online VBA references/tutorials.<br />

thanks much,<br />

VB, VBA, VBScript?

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.
