Visual Basic 6 is an event-driven programming language developed by Microsoft. It enables developers to create Windows-based applications with a graphical user interface (GUI) through a drag-and-drop interface and pre-built components, simplifying the process of application development.

About Visual Basic 6
Visual Basic 6 was released by Microsoft in 1998. It was developed to provide a more intuitive and efficient way for programmers to create Windows applications, leveraging a drag-and-drop interface and simplifying the coding process. It became popular for its ease of use and rapid application development capabilities.
Strengths of Visual Basic 6 included its ease of use, rapid application development capabilities, and strong integration with Windows. Weaknesses were its limited support for modern programming paradigms and lack of cross-platform compatibility. Competitors included Delphi, Java, and C++.
