It was like Visual Basic and Pascal had a baby

It was never clear to me who showed up first, but I used Delphi first and then tried Visual Basic and was like "Oh! It's here too!"

Well if you were familiar with Delphi the VB magic broke when you tried to make your own components for the designer.

I went the same path and it was a bit of a shock when I found out i have to fire up Visual C++ to do a custom VB button.
