They both have a similar IDE and much of the wording is the same other than some minor differences for example; a simple label in MSVB6 would be written as Label1.Caption = "whatever" in Gambas it is written as Label1.Text = "whatever" Of course, the more complex your programing needs the less a MSVB training manual will help, its just to give you a starting point. Hope this helps all who read this. MSVB is very similar to Gambas, infact so similar i’ve used a MSVB6 training manual to learn Gambas, the syntax and functions are almost the same.

Obviously if you know more it is a very powerful tool. Positives - You can write very complex programs with lots of features very quickly. Negatives - If you are very inexperienced in modern languages(VB, C), like myself, then the lack of a definitive textbook (written for the idiot) is a problem - however the structure and ease of test running allows for a "trial and error" style of syntax appreciation. It Works ! If you know nothing about C or Visual Basic and only know the very old BASIC then Gambas will get you up and running very quickly. Obviously if you know more it is a very powerful tool.
