    Nowhere on this forums is it acceptable to request advice or aid on non-Parallax products. Sometimes it is overlooked in the Sandbox when it is a question regarding a product which Parallax does not have a comperable product, but your question doesn't fit into this catagory.

    I assume when you say microprocessor, you actually mean microcontrollor, akin to the Basic Stamp. But the idea of Visual Basic on a microcontroller is absurd, what is "visual" about a microcontroller? Visual makes reference to easily controlling forms, dialogs and other "visual" elements present on a screen. In the vast majority of·applications a microcontroller is used in, there is no display sofisticated enough to warrent special means to control it's visual appearence.

    How I really read your question is: "I know how to program in Visual Basic, I don't want/care to learn a different form of the Basic language; is there a microcontroller I can program without having to learn anything new." The answer to this question is: no there isn't.
