I’m new, is there anything similar to Visual Basic for QNX RTOS? Thanks!

Yes … go with Python + PyQt. Available at
http://www.sf.net/projects/pyqnx
Jython (a JAVA based Python implementation) could also be an option for
the
JAVA environment of QNX6. It’s should be possible to use SWT classes by
Jython.

Visual Basic is a Microsoft product and thus runs probably only on m$
platforms. There are, however, some imitations for other platforms. You
should probably look at GnoBasic from the gnome.org project.
It claims to be compatible with earlier versions of visual basic (I’ve
got some success with some visual basic 1 projects) but no more.
GnoBasic is also very slow even compared to vb1 and thus pretty
useless. This would also require the port of the gnome library to qnx or
reduce GnoBasic GUI usage to Gtk libraries (which are already avaible).
Not impossible 
, but very hard and probably won’t compensate for
satisfable results.

If you are looking for an easier way to write Photon code, then you can look
at Gamma (www.cogent.ca). It is a good tool for quickly developing GUI
applications and graphical shell scripts, among other things. If you are
looking for an IDE, then the Photon Applicaiton Builder lets you draw
screens and add code to them. It is bundled with the QNX6 download.
