what is the closest language to vbscripting?
#1
Solved: 11 Years, 3 Months, 4 Weeks ago
Hi,

Can anyone suggest the programming language closest to vbscripting that i have to learn to work with QTP/vbscripting? I have the choice of the following;

-vb 6.0
-vb 2005
-vb 2008
-vba

(my empoyer has only these courses to offer, no vbscripting-course possible)

I know there are some differences in these languages and I guess I need the one closest to vbs.
Thanks for helping me out.

regards Danny

for class purposes, given these choices, I would have to go with VB6 even though it really isn't that close and would only give you the basics such as scope, variable declaration, and basic syntax. Do they have a ASP class? ASP is just a combination of HTML (Web) and VBScript (server).....not ASP.NET.

thanks for the advise
yes there is ASP but only in combination with Jscript. Is VB6 just an older version of vb2005/2008?

VB6 and .NET (VB2005/8) are different generation languages (GL). If memory serves VB6 is 2nd GL and .NET is 3rd. How much was Windows95 an earlier version of XP or Vista? There are some similarities, but there are also many differences.
