Calling API in VB6 isn't hard. Yes, it's more work then other languages because it does not contain a centalized include system like C++ does but, it doesn't make it impossible or insanely hard like you guys make it seem lol.

An API such as OpenProcess which is used a lot in hacking would be declared like this in VB6:

Code:
Public Declare Function OpenProcess Lib "kernel32" (ByVal dwDesiredAccess As Long, ByVal bInheritHandle As Long, ByVal dwProcessId As Long) As Long


If you took the time to look at the header files in C++, it's just as long as this, the work is just done for you already.

we actually have enough facility to make "header files" in VB6: make a module containing everything the C++ headers do.

but overhead.. yeah.
