What language to learn?
I am considering learning to develop in the Visual Studio environment. Is
this the cutting edge for programming? Would this be a way to learn C#, C++ , and Java. I have no formal tech education due to circumstances, but have taught myself to develop some applications with VBA. I would like to continue on and learn the skills needed to get a decent job in the future, or to start my own ISV. Thanks in advance. |

What language to learn?
hi,
VB and C are going to be around a while as well as java. but microsoft languages are under fire now most notably from open source. a lot of people and companies are switching to linux so unix might be a language to dabble in also. that is my next project. regards FSt1 "AD108" wrote: I am considering learning to develop in the Visual Studio environment.

If you are going .Net, it is probably best to use C# IMO.

Have you considered Delphi ?
..Net flavours available also, apparently. NickHK "AD108" wrote in message ... I am considering learning to develop in the Visual Studio environment. Is this the cutting edge for programming?
