Never had QuickBASIC.
Had TurboBASIC but had a project needing access to MS Access so I bought VisualBASIC 5. Turned out that VisualBASIC Pro was required, and much more expensive (and I could not afford). Also, I absolutely hated the IDE! Cancel the project. Felt cheated (even if I missed some small print somewhere) ,Mm copy of VB basically went in the trash.
Somewhere about that time Mr. Z. got his baby back from Borland. I've used PB ever since.
Cheers,
