I haven't touched VB6 in ages - I tend to wonder what it would be like "going back to it". Not too long ago I remarked here on HN that I expected VB6 programmers might become in demand in the future (when, I don't know), similar to how COBOL programmers were/are. Basically, for the need to convert apps, written internally for a business, from VB6 to something else (likely to VB.NET or C# - maybe on Mono - but there are other options too). I expect this to happen when Microsoft finally kills off the VB6 runtime DLL - but so far they haven't; from what I understand, it's still available in Win10...
