Visual Basic, a few questions

HI

I was looking into programming languages to start up with, and I came across Visual Basic, and it seems decent. But I have a few questions, the first is , is it good to learn with, or is there a better one, I have no specific goals or anything, I just want to start into programming.

My second question is, which one of the Vb packages should I get?

all help appreciated

VB is ok, but if you're going to use the .NET framework, learn C# instead. If you want an easier route, learn Python. You'll be more productive in that language in a shorter amount of time than most other languages.

i think that vb is where u start from, no matter what programming u want to do in the future (asp,php,java) or any other language, visual basic is the foundation, don't get too much into vb, but don't be too quick to start something harder.

Visual Basic is a GREAT language to start with! Do you have any plans for web development or anything of the like?

Regardless the syntax and programming styles in Basic are really easy, and a great transition into the programming world.

I allways liked the enterprise edition personally.
