LOL. Delphi ran circle around VB. It could do what VB did but way better and could also do what MS C++ did. Obviously as you admit you have no real knowledge of the subject.

Wow, could you be any more haughty? I'm referring specifically to the UI. Yes I never worked with Delphi so I am indeed quite ignorant to its obviously apparent wonder.

Delphi's precursors were Pascal as a language and ObjectVision as the concept of the UI (released in 1991). Both products created by Borland. It did not need VB to "copy from". Borland tools of the time were superior to MS and drove Gates nuts.
