As a non-programmer, I've been looking for a VB successor for a long time.

Not sure if either of these are useful to you, but there are some interesting projects in LiveCode[1] and in Alpha Anywhere[2]. I've not used either.

I'm hoping Mozilla's AppMaker[3] comes to something, but I haven't been able to actually make it work yet.

I can't say that I find any of these really (yet) hitting the sweet spot that HyperCard did, but that may be my own ignorance. :-D

I wouldn't call it a VB replacement but have a look at processing.org
