I have tried to learn programming languages multiple times, but could never really get into it. Can someone recommend me a language that is easy but can do very complicated things once you get to know it? Also, that you can easily make GUIs. The earlier the payoff the better, as well.
 
I'd say VB. GUIs in java is somewhat straight forward as well but you have to figure out all the stupid layout styles to really get it going.
 
go with Visual Basic it's a great language to start out on, this year i'm taking my first programming classes, both VB and Java
 
I say C#
anything you wanna do with VB you can do it with C# but not vise versa
it's pretty much the same way of making GUI, you just drag and drop objects
 
I'm getting out of majors that require so much programming at school, but we did just make a neat java email client. I can actually send messeges as anyone from the college(and other places if I get the server names O.O ) I swear this was a project!
 
I'm just starting out on Visual Basic.NET, you get the framework and studio from www.microsoft.com for free and program in notepad if you want. It seems a good language to learn.

you can get VB Express Edition for free and program in the IDE
it's dumb to use notepad as you don't take advantage of intellisense and the drag and drop capabilities.
the IDE is a time saver
 
at my school in the grade 12 programming a project is to make an IM'ing program aswell as database projects and games of all types its pretty sweet
