C#, Java, or Python I'd suggest.


agreed, get a Visual Basic 2005 beginnger book and use that to get started. It's a GREAT language, no matter what anybody tries to tell you 🙂

I am one of those people. You should start with a language which uses a nice, normal, brackets-and-semicolons syntax - like C, C++, Jave, C#, and others. You will find it much easier to move to another language if you do this.
 
A bump for this thread because I'm in a similar situation. I've picked up visual basic 6.0, do I need any other books or anything to supplement it? what to do from here?
