In summary, Visual Basic is a programming language developed by Microsoft for creating GUIs and applications for Windows. To call a website in Visual Basic, the "Navigate" method of the Internet Explorer object can be used. A query in Visual Basic is a request for information from a database and can be made using the "Select" statement with "From" and "Where" clauses. Additionally, Visual Basic can be used to automate website interactions by using the "InternetExplorer" object to navigate, fill out forms, click buttons, and retrieve data from HTML code.
