The VB6 IDE was Ok for 1998, but 1998 was a long time ago.

I still use VB6/VBA to get shit done, but only because I have a bunch of code & tools I've already written in or for it. I can see how it would be pretty useless to most people.

Registry-free COM has solved all of the versioning issues for me.

Language-wise, I find it's limitations to be its strength - kind of like ouilipo for programming.
