So is this Visual C++,i have heard of Visual C++ but i am not sure what it is.

I think you are confused/mistaken. Microsoft Word does contain an implementation of Visual Basic called Visual Basic Applications (VBA) which is also in the other office programs (Excel, Access etc) which is the macro language Microsoft use in there office programs to allow customisations and extensions to be written.

I am fairly sure Word does not contain a C/C++ compiler.

Its also important to note here that VB .net and VBA are not compiled languages. They are interpreted by the .net framework or by the office app.

Who needs screen shot software, just press <Print Screen> and Windows copies the screen to the clipboard (or <alt>-<Print Screen> and it copies the active window). From there you can paste it into an graphics package (Praint in a pinch).

Yes that is the VB scripting facility that Office provides. It is not a compiler.
