Hi Bryan,
Well, personally I would strongly recommend that anyone interested in 
Visual Basic at least give Visual Basic 2008 a try. It is free, and 
contains many of the features Jim Kitchen mentioned earlier.
As for Visual Basic 6 you can still get it used from some place like 
Ebay, but why would you really want to? We are talking Windows 98 era 
stuff, and if you are looking at something that is more with the times 
VB 2008 is a newer and better solution. One major advantage VB 2008 has 
over VB 6 is an improved object oriented  design like C++, Java, etc 
with the same ease of use as VB 6.
Though, before I go I want to give this little disclaimer. You really 
should be running at least Jaws 7 or higher to be able to use the VB 
2008 IDE. I've used it with Jaws 9 and it works fine. I have not tried 
it with Jaws 4.02 and I am not all that sure I'd want to. Last time I 
encountered Jaws 4.02 with some of the apps I was running on XP speech 
output royally sucked with Mozilla Firefox, Mozilla Thunderbird, Nero 7, 
and some of the other apps I am using. Hense the upgrade to Jaws 8 now 9.
