I'm going to start learning VB.NET

Maybe link me to some basic Tutorials?

Post whatever questions you have here at SF, either start one thread for yourself or start one everytime you run into a problem. I'm sure people would be more than happy to help. I will. Start by copy/pasting simple code, and going through it line by line to figure out what each line does.

Thanks man, I've recently learned:

• Message Boxes
  
• Variables
  
• If Thens
  
• Form Linking
  

And I will post when help is needed

If this is your first language I suggest stopping now. If you learn VB as your first language you'll have trouble learning any other language. Try python first.

I disagree, you can get a pretty decent grasp of Object Oriented Programming from VB.net. Besides, this may be the only language he chooses to learn. The Visual Studio IDE is VERY friendly to new programmers which i think is a big help.

I personally think it'd a bad thing. It is mostly drag and drop software. That's how most people learn, and most people also end up copying sources.

If he chooses differently that's great, but I'm speaking for the majority.
