VB is a lot easier than C, however it is very limited. The choice is yours.

If you are new to programming, you should start with VB for sure. If your the old man at sea, then take into consideration the following facts:

1- Microsoft's low-level high tech language was always C++. It's both tough to learn and does tough stuff.

2- Visual Basic is easy, does a lot and saves development time. It's not a low-level programming language, but still, it's used by many developers and many companies have adopted it as their official programming language.

3- Since microsoft usually rolles out a new version of Visual Studio (after they get low on cash flows) Microsoft has, as expected, rolled out the new Visual Studio.Net for the year 2000. This version of VS includes:

1-Visual Basic.Net
2-Visual C++.net
3-Visual J++.net
4-and the all new Visual C# (pronounced c-sharp)

The purpose Microsoft has made C# is that they has been asked by many professional programmers and large enterprises to make a programming language that has both the low-level ability of C++ and the ease of use of Visual Basic. In response to their request, Microsoft has rolled out it's all-new high-tech easy to use OOP language which is actualy a merge of Visual Basic and Visual C++.

SO make your choice.
