I am attempting to complete a task that involves me to interface with Excel documents, and I have read that my options are C# or VB.NET. I have to do a good amount of text parsing, but anything that can't directly manipulate/create Excel charts is a show-stopper for me.
From what I have read, attempting to do this with C# would be harder than VB.NET due to C#'s parameter handling, wheras VB is more forgiving and thus quicker to build with.
I've done a TON of ANSI C and engineering-oriented stuff like VHDL, with a splash of PHP thrown in but nothing with regards to Windows programming directly.
There's a ton of VB stuff out there and MSDN has a good REFERENCE section, but where can I be brought up to speed on the general nature of VB?
