{{about|the Embedded Visual Basic development tool|the language|Visual Basic}}
'''Embedded Visual Basic''' or eVB, is an implementation of Microsoft [[Visual Basic]] which is geared towards generating programmes for embedded systems such as [[PDA]]s, cellular telephones, modern [[pocket computers]] and other programmable electronic systems <ref>Microsoft Web Site, accessed 3. March 2016</ref>
Embedded Visual Basic is available from Microsoft, as are other such tools including Embedded [[Visual C++]] (eVC++) and Embedded [[Visual J++]] (eVJ++), as well as other deveoplment tools and a relational databse system for Windows CE (a de facto Visual FoxPro replacement). A centrally important Windows CE-related tool is [[ActiveSync]], which allows access of a device from a desktop computer as well as Control Panel functionality (e.g. Install & Uninstall Programmes). Amongst other tools is a version of RegEdit for Windows CE.
The implementations of these tools provide objects and components which can be used to write programmes which automate [[Microsoft Office]]'s Pocket versions, which would be the one way to get scriping and macro capabilty for the Pocket office suite. There is not an Embedded [[Visual InterDev]] version, nor have [[MSDN]] or [[Visual Source Safe]] been ported to Windows CE. The other means of obtaining Visual Basic functionality under Windows CE is to install the [[Windows Script Host]] implementation which is a non-default install available from the installation CD-Rom.
Version 3 of the embedded Visual Basic, Visual J++, and Visual C++ tools approximate the language and implementation of Visual Basic 6.0, Visual J++ 6.0, and Visual C++ 6.0. The CD-Roms for installation of these tools have been provided for free from Microsoft.<ref>MSDN entry on Embedded (April 1999 version)</ref> A further update of the latter, version 4.5, is also available.
