I need to program something

I haven't coded in a while. Only know C++ but forgeting more as the seconds tick by. Anyway, I need to make a program that runs in windows, has buttons and can display output in the same window. I'm thinking VB.net would be good for the job since I don't want to write my own gui, but I don't know VB. I'm having problems linking the logic of the code with the gui actions. Someone recommend a book that'll get me going, or better yet a free link. I don't need to know about for loops. Or if you have an idea about a different language I should use I'm all ears.

PYTHON AND WXWINDOWS

OH AND BY-THE-WAY: WRONG BOARD YOU FURI

The paradigm you need to learn is "event driven programming". It's necessary to understand this well because it is what nearly all the toolkits use.

I fount c# was a decent place to start for user interfaces.  If you want books and help, I suggest joining the ACM.  It's $42 a year for a student and they give you more resources than you can shake a stick at.

Thanks, but I'm not looking to spend that much. It's just for a quick personal use program.

I've done event driven before, I guess I'm talking more about VB syntax than anything else.

and oops, forgot there was a programming board.
