Just a word of caution no offence but QT Designer is not an IDE.  It is a forms builder.

There's something called mono which is supposed to be a VB linux lookalike AFAICT. I've not yet succeeded in building it but I think there are binaries (I just like to build everything). Google for it and see what you think.
Hi ducan_roe,

Mono project is here http://www.mono-project.com/Main_Page.  There is nothing like VB but mono is a .NET counter part in Linux and uses C#
All of you guys post very helpful links. Thanks
