Visual Basic (VB) is an object-oriented language and development environment created by Microsoft in 1991. It has evolved from the earlier version of ‘BASIC’ language, which stands for ‘Beginners All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code.’ Under the VB programming framework, software developers can use GUI-based features to alter sections of code by dragging and dropping objects. It allows programmers to define the behavior, function, and appearance of different objects by using graphical elements.
