Hard to say without trying it. Clearly it is a BASIC with a GUI component, 
and clearly it has a *superficial* resemblance to VB. Whether it 
constitutes "a version of visualbasic" depends on how closely it follows 
the VB API, and I can't tell that just from reading the Web pages ... 
although the phrase "Very short learning curve for VB developers" on the 
introductory page is to my eye a warning of subtle incompatibilities with 
VB, not a "feature".

Also, the Janus product is not GPL'd or under any other Open Source license 
(though the binary itself is freeware), so it is *probably* not what the 
original poster was referring to.
