That all depends on what you want. If you want games, high speed, flexibility, general/commerical programs, go for Visual C++. If you want Databses, use Visual Basic or Visual FoxPro. If you want Internet and Java, use Visual InterDev or Visual J++.
VB is certainly easier, but you can pick up some bad habits learning VB.
I'd suggest you learn both at the same time, strt off getting the hang of VB to theextent you roughly understand how computerprogramming works (ie you can use variables, functions, etc and generally can see how you might accomplish a simple task using VB, then start on C++, learning both at the same time, this way you won't have a VB mode and then have to switch into C++ mode when you want to use C++.
