I had planned on learning C++ a while ago so I could write general PC software for various things (data logging, various interfaces to PIC projects, machinery alarm and monitoring, etc.). After reading the first few chapters of a book several times over the last 6 months I realized that someone who works 60 hours a week, designs and sells PIC products on the side, has a family and almost no free time, and only will program occasionally will never learn C++. I was thinking of trying VB. What if anything will I loose by using VB instead and is it a lot easier to learn than C++? -- http://www.piclist.com#nomail Going offline?
