I've got a copy of MS Visual Studio.NET 2005

WHICH LANGUAGE VBasic or VC++ is better for me ???
Remember I've no experience of C++, only of C.

Answer 1

Common sense dictates that you leverage the C skill-set that you have—while it is still fresh in your mind—and next familiarize yourself with an object-oriented member of the C family, i.e., C++. However, you did specify that your next goal is learn how to design Windows user interfaces.

In any event, you must learn object-oriented programming techniques. I recommend that you ignore Visual C++. The more popular languages are C++, C# and Visual Basic.

Visual Basic is the most popular visual programming language on the planet. Generally speaking, many people find Visual Basic is easier to learn than C++ or C#. Visual Basic provides programmers with an intuitive and powerful way to create Windows GUIs with ease.

I recommend that you learn VB thoroughly. In addition, you should familiarize yourself with C++/C# concepts and applications—just in case you want to be well-rounded. Note that practically anything that you can do in the C# or Visual Basic language can be done in the other: They are both part of the .NET Framework.

Answer 2

Definitely C++ --- its easy if you know C already.

c++
