Best languages to start with depend on your target goal, I usually always say start with vb.net if your looking to be a desktop application developer, the language is easy to pick up and extremely powerful.

I could also argue to start with C# for the same reason.

However, if you tell me you have a broader interest, I would say learn C++ first, the reason I would suggest it in a broader sense is because of it's syntax (believe it or not)

By learning C++ first, if you decide to develop in OBJ C for iphone, the translation should be pretty easy, because the languages and syntax are similar, if you decide to transition offer to Java, or web stuff like CSS etc, then the syntax is similar enough for you to make the transition.

one of the things I regret in what I have learned was starting off in asm and B.a.s.i.c when I decided to learn C and Attempt pascal and learn the web languages I know now, it was hard for me, (other then html) and took alot for me to understand and get used to the syntax, so by starting with C++ you can easily transition between other languages (for the most part)

I am not saying by learning C++ you will have learned all the other languages, you will still need to work hard, but it will make for an easy transition, if you decide to learn a B.A.S.I.C language, then it will be just as hard as making the transition form Basic to C++ .

SO determine what it is you want to develop and what platform .
@NextGen1 desktop applications, which i can already do wit vb 2008, but it doesnt provide with much to do anymore.

So C++ is good with desktop apps too?
