VBA pretty much is VB6 with all the Office object model exposed. Modern VisualBASIC has different syntax but shares the form design concepts. Microsoft for some reason made a break from VB6 syntax and in the process pretty much killed a large portion of their community. RealBASIC which became Xojo picked up the syntax as a way to attract developers.
VBA also happens to work with some CAD software so there is extra value there.
