Use C# it is the easiest.

If you will ever learn C++ it is good.

Don't forget that SQL Server 2005 Express is also free when you need to add data to your programs.

VB.NET and C# are essentially the same language with different syntax. I'd say that VB.NET has more traps for young players, although the syntax is initally perhaps more intuitive, being more 'English like'.

Yup, go to http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/ the 'express' editions are currently free

I'd start learning with VB, which I think is a lot simpler than C#(C sharp)/C++, although others on here have different opinions! (as I'm sure you will hear soon)

VB 2005 Express is freely available at http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/vb/

All you need to write VB applications is a text editor and the VB compiler, which is included in the .NET framework which is also a free download.
