Visual Basic Express Edition is a free set of tools intended for Windows developers to allow them to create personalized applications by using basic and advanced settings.
Key features
- Objective: It allows you to create Windows applications based on .NET Framework. In addition, it is also includes the following advantages: execution of your new application, language interoperability and excellent safety.
- Interface: It is equipped with an intuitive drag and drop interface where you are guided step-by-step throughout the creation of your application. It also offers friendlier and useful start options.

the express edition is pretty useless if your looking to do any serious programming. Handy if you want to learn basic programming but not much else
quite a few people have created thier own mock programs among other things.
hope this helped

Everyone who can use it will love it.
I have been using Basic since it was shipped as part of DOS. In those days it was called Basica an interpretor language. Then I ran through the compiler versions,Quick Basic, Turbo Basic, Power Basic, Visual Basic etc.
This one has integrated features to access MS Office documents, like read write Excel spreadsheets, so anyone who complains it better give a reason or tell us a better free product!
finally i find it ..
