Just want to interject that VB will persist to exist as the language of 
choice for macros in MS Office. Since MS has reworked VBA to work in 
x64 (VBA7), I don't expect VB to disappear in my working lifetime. 
While it may be arguable that VBA is not Classic VB in various ways, it 
remains that the underlying core to the VBA language IS Classic VB!<g>

MS tried to take away VBA capability it Mac versions of MS Office and 
got a horrific reaming for doing so. -Well.., at least enough of a 
reaming that they put it back in pretty quick!

I'm thinking there is not a dedicated special runtime for VBA, and so 
unless I'm wrong MS will continue to ship that runtime with MS Office 
if they take it out of Windows!<IMO>
