The DAO and OLE Automation was a paradigm that saturated the market with similar applications, and the move to mobile/cloud platforms essentially made the computational overhead a liability.

VB "made simple things easy, and difficult things impossible" in a developer environment. Its funny that the ecosystem of OCX still haunts many projects.
It could be Python took over the role of an introductory language. =)
