Windows Process Description:

The library file vb40016.dl is a requisite in running programs and applications that are using the Visual Basic (VB) programming language. Hence, if the file is removed, it may greatly affect the system and many applications will not work properly. The installation of Visual Basic requires the Visual Basic Runtime that should only be installed once. Visual Basic Runtime's files, which include the files vbrun200.dl, vb40032.dll, and vb40016.dll, will then be shared by every Visual Basic Program installed in the system.

So far, there are four versions of VB Run Time, one of which is Visual Basic 4.0 that uses the vb40016.dll file. Visual Basic 4.0, introduced in August 1995, was the first version that can create a 32-bit and 16-bit Windows programs. Take note that the version of runtime that one has to install is dependent on the version of the VB language that writes the VB program that one wants to run. If the user wants to run VB v. 4.0, he/she must first install Visual Basic Runtime v. 4.0. This version uses relevant files, such as the files vb40016.dll and vb40032.dll, to do its purpose.

Aside from being a programming language, Visual Basic is also a complete graphical development environment. This environment enables users with little programming knowledge to quickly develop Microsoft Windows applications which have the capacity to use Object Linking and Embedding (OLE) objects, such as an Excel Spreadsheet. Because of its use of relevant library files like the files vb40016.dll, vb5stkit.dll, vb6fr.dll, and vb6stkit.dll, Visual Basic creates a user friendly environment which allows users to have fine looking, graphical programs with little coding requisites, unlike many other languages that take thousands or hundreds of keyed codes.

Visual Basic was released in 1987, and was the first visual development tool from Microsoft to compete with C, C++, Pascal, and other well-known programming languages. Visual Basic was not a hit at first, not until the release of version 2.0 in 1991 when people really discovered the potential of the language. With the release of version 3.0, it had become the fastest growing programming language in the market.
