VB is the earlier version of VB.NET. However VB.NET is extended with the .NET framework, which adds tens of thousands of new tools, functions and commands to handle all sorts of tasks with Windows and the Web Server.
You should start with VB.NET. It's wholly different than VB and features much better programming practices, better tools and a more productive environment. Make sure you have a good teacher/book though.
Good luck.

This depends on what you want to accomplish. If you are looking to program graphics packages, etc you should go with C++ / MFC. If you are looking to write Windows / Web Applicaitons you can choose either C# or VB.net. If you have ever programmed C or VB, there are some distinct differences between the .NET languages. Either way you go the code is considered managed code. There are a lot of great books out there from WROX that walk you through projects. I am self taught in most of the languages that I use today. I have leaned towards VB.net, but Once you learn how to program Object Oriented Programming in one language you can take those base principles to other languages like C#, J#, Java, C, C+, etc.

C is the easiest language. But my first proframming language is VB. VB.net is somewhat better, it's .NET framework help your program run anywhere. for me i'd start with with VB than VB.net
If you tried C, it's a key to many language like PHP or the basics to Visual C++ / C#. Basically C is not a windows application (it has no interface, when you run it, dos windows will open.) but it'll help you to continue with C-developed language.

Better start with C since if you once know it well,then you can adopt to any language easily.
