> VISUAL BASIC, C++, C, VISUAL C(+), JAVA....

	All these languages have their advantages and disadvantages.  Visual Basic
and Visual C++ are widely used because of thier simplicity.  They are
powerful in the sence that they increasse productivity.  You can get an
application done a lot faster with these languages then with any other
because they are "Visual" and easy to use compared to other Languages. 
C++, on the other hand is powerful, in the sence that you can write code
that executes faster and more efficiantly then any "Visual" language, but
it takes longer to write an app in C++ than it does in Visual C++ (C++ is
less productive).  The Bottom line is, if you want to write Windows apps
right away and your apps don't need a lot of power, then I would choose VB
or VC++.
