  Neither can I.  Why don't you experiment?  Create a form with 10 or so
controls on it in Visual Basic and run it.  Watch the form thrash around
while drawing the controls.  Now code up the same interface in C or C++ and
run it.  Much snappier, eh?

  Then that settles it!  I will use Visual Basic for my backlog of one
button functionless forms!  My clients will be overjoyed.
