Stick with C++ and it'll take you far. Don't let so-called "starter" languages throw you on the wrong track. And someone mentioned in an earlier post that C++ is only used for developing windows applications - that is completely UNTRUE. Unless this person means Visual C++ which you should stay away from for now.

Good Luck !

I started my heavy programming two years ago with True BASIC. It was a really crappy programming language as far as I'm concerned now, but when I tried to learn C++ I was able to pick up the basics extremely quickly. It really does help to start with something like that.

My suggestions would be to start with Visual Basic; it's a fairly easy language to start learning the logic and what not. When you get good enough at the logic stuff, all the other languages flow a lot easier. After that you definitely need to learn C++; it's a godly language, hehe. After that, well, it's up to you I guess.

Well, I've just invested in Visual Studio, and it's making my programming real simple.
Visual C++ rules....
