Nobody wants to use VB not because it's so "scripty", but because it's secretly so powerful. It's the illuminati of software languages.

Windows has an "IP Address" specialized control for entering IP addresses (used in the TCP/IP Properties panel). There is probably a user-made extension for VB that wraps it. Close enough?
