In short, Visual Basic for Applications comes integrated with (almost all versions of) Excel, whereas Visual Basic 6 comes with Visual Studio 6.

Sorry I am not a genius, but what I understand is the answer YES, --- or---NOT , what you said is vb6=vba, please if I am wrong let me know.
you know that what makes a forum is the IQ differences.

It depends on what level you're comparing them. They are not the same thing, but the language syntax is the same in both. One difference is the environment each is developed in, which I mentioned before: VBA is developed and run within Office, whereas VB6 is developed in VS6 and compiled into an exe or dll.
