Hi,

VB is programming language which was with added support of visual development. Sometime / some people alos call a tool because it is with full intigrated development environment (IDE) which in case of other languages is not integrated (like in java KAWA is used, for html, PHP and ASP Frontpage or Dreamweaver is commonly used)
Hence VB6 is programing language but you can call a tool as IDE + IS very specific for VB6.

About manage /unmanaged...

Code written in any .net language is compiled by certain compiler( cs, vb) to MISL and then by JIT and is executed under CLR...
All the code for which execution is handled by CLR is called managed.
Here deitals are well explained .
Managed VS unmanaged details

Hopefully it would help you

Thanks,
Munawar

Homework assignments are not catered for in the forum, that is why your teacher is paid the big bucks. In my day we were thrashed to within an inch of our lives and it was certainly character building. Please read the FAQs before your next post. I am closing this thread.
