I knew that was the next question  ;-)

Points in favor of using C++:

high performance required
extensive use of system apis
creating COM objects
wide distribution of resulting program
Fancy UI manipulation
Windows standard UI appearance
detailed bits and bytes code

Points in favor of using VB:

a lot of straightforward UI logic
use of COM objects, especially database access
quickly thrown together apps
