Hi All, I have a number of databases which I would like to convert to VB or VC using Microsoft Visual Studio Express. I know I cannot just click a button and have everything done automatically and that I would need to learn to program. What I would like to know is which language would be best for a novice. I've written...

Here is a subtle difference. Google'ing for "how to's".

Thanks for all the help with this one, I think that for now I'll have a go with VB.Net and when I have a little more confidence check our VC.Net.
