Alas that's not true. I will reluctantly concede that Microsoft is a
"proper software company" but they stopped supporting Visual Basic 6
in 2008. They substituted a completely new language called VB.Net.
There seemed no assurance that Microsoft would not scrap VB.Net in the
future so I decided to migrate my applications to Java. It has the
advantage that it is supported by several major software vendors
including IBM and Oracle so it cannot be discontinued simply because
one company decides it should go.
