VBA is basically a subset of VB6 and only runs inside a host application (e.g. the Office applications)
VB.Net is the replacement for VB6 and allows you to create compiled executable files.
VBScript is basically an even smaller subset of VB6 that is most commonly used in web pages or as standalone text files (with .vbs extension) which are actually run by the CScript or WScript executables.
