O teh nos!

the secret is out!

Of course dude, all beginner programs are made in VB, make a simple program its quite easy. Then code it with the code tab, then it gets difficult.

You can get VB 2008 Express (basically VB.NET) for free there.

dang, i was just about to post a link. But anyway, VB is similar to C#, in the designing way, but much more different or more difficult in the coding. VB is more simple, and creates excellent, but less advanced programs. C# can take less code, but is presented and coded differently.

C++ doesn't have a design, its basically a small Command Prompt app. But can do all sorts of things which i cannot mention because i know nothing about it, lol.

**VB is what im using to code my program. Visual Basic Express 2008, which reminds me, can anyone point me to a blog/forum other than MSDN for help, they know alot, but it takes 3-4 posts to get a good answer out of them.

EDIT: Anyone know anything about MySQL integration into Visual Basic 2008 (2008 ONLY).

VB.NET, C#.NET, and C++.NET all use the exact same libraries, thus they all have the exact same functions. You can design a form with C++. As for MySQL integration in .NET, go here.

@Tommy2st
I also prefer C#.

Beginners use VB, people who want more control over their program's use C-style languages.

Visual Basic is C language. there is also C#, C+, and C++. Im pretty sure that's correct, at least that's what microsoft explained to me.. unless i fail to read correctly ( can happen at some time.. )

VB is not a C language. Visual Basic is one of the worst languages you can learn. I regret learning it. it makes learning other languages twice or even thrice as hard.

Also, there's no such thing as C+ language.

Don't waste your time learning VB. Learn C#.
