What are the differences between Visual Basic, VBA and
VBScript? When would it be appropriate to use one as
opposed to another?

Answer Posted / ranjan garg

Visual Basic is a standalone tool for creating separate
software components such as executable programs, COM
components and ActiveX? Controls. It is useful when
building a specialised solution from scratch. VBA offers
the same powerful tools as Visual Basic in the context of
an existing application and is the best option for
customising software that already meets most needs.
VBScript is a lightweight version of the Visual Basic
language designed specifically for use on web pages. While
VBScript can sometimes be used for simple automation, VBA
is the premier technology designed specifically for
application automation.
