Pick a language, do a search on google for <language> tutorials, if you don't know any language names, you should probably start with Basic, pascal, or possibly Java, then move onto C++ or C (very good languages, very detailed, hard to learn), but, for a quick program, Visual Basic will always be the quickest way, best of luck on this hard journey!

well, dos is what most of the programs you write will be in, you have to deal with it considering it takes 10x as long to make a windows prog, sometimes you can create a class in c++ and use it in VB, but, you PROBABLY will never get that far, I know I never did... lol

Well, I was speaking strictly of coding with C++ from scratch, much easier to use a dos interface...
