I have very good experience in Visual Basic 6.0, this is the primary programming language that I have been using for 8 years already, both in freelance projects and where I am employed. I am using Visual Basic 6.0 with SQL Server 2000 and MS Access for my several Business Application Projects. In my employment in iComm International, this is also the primary language being used to develop applications that involves OCXs, DLLs, COM. It is just 3 years ago that we have migrated some applications to VB.net, but most of the applications being used in my present employment is VB6. 

I am a freelance programmer since 1997, but I have just started using VB6 in year 2000 for my projects.

I was a software engineer in iComm since 2003 which really sharpen my experience in developing N-Tier Applications using VB6 including OCXs, DLLs, etc. Even now that I am a Sr. Software Manager, I am still using VB6 as one of my tools.
