Visual Basic (VB) is a third-generation event-driven programming language from Microsoft known for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. Whether you are looking to maintain, upgrade, or integrate a Visual Basic application, we are here to assist you.
VB was derived heavily from BASIC and enables the rapid application development (RAD) of graphical user interface (GUI) applications, access to databases using Data Access Objects, Remote Data Objects, or ActiveX Data Objects, and creation of ActiveX controls and objects.
Despite the fact that VB is a legacy technology that has largely been superseded by .NET, many organizations still rely on critical applications built in VB. We understand that rewriting these applications from scratch may not be feasible due to cost or time constraints. That’s where our VB maintenance and support services come in.
Our experienced developers can help you:
- Troubleshoot and fix bugs in your VB applications
- Enhance existing functionality or add new features
- Optimize application performance
- Integrate VB applications with newer systems and technologies
- Migrate VB6 applications to a modern stack when you’re ready to modernize
We work with all versions of VB, from the earliest releases up through the final version, VB 6.0. Our team is well-versed in the VB language, the Visual Basic runtime library, ActiveX, and the Component Object Model (COM), giving us the deep knowledge needed to effectively support your VB applications.
Whether your goal is to keep your existing VB applications running reliably, update them with new capabilities, or begin the journey of modernization, Durable Programming has the VB expertise you need. We’re committed to providing the support and guidance to help your business applications remain viable in the long term.
Contact us today to discuss your Visual Basic application needs. We’ll work with you to find the most effective solution, whether that’s troubleshooting, enhancement, integration, or a phased migration to .NET. With our help, your legacy VB applications can remain an asset rather than a liability.
