It might not be quite that easy.  :-)  Syntactically, VB is not all
that different that any other basic, however, VB is event driven which
is unlike any other basic that I know of.  I always found it to be a
pain to block the user from clicking on buttons that weren't ready to
be clicked on yet.

BTW, if you want to try a 32-bit basic that is not VB, check out the
2nd URL in the sig.
