Hello everyone.

I've joined daniweb mainly because I need some guidelines for programming. I currently know some VBA, R and HTML which is not a lot, but I'd like to change that in the nearest future :)

I've noticed that probably the best way to learn to program is to learn by doing. Now, however, I want to write some software for Windows, but I lack the language and conceptual skills to do it. I even have a small project in mind to start with and I would be grateful if anyone could direct me in a proper forum to post it.

Welcome to DaniWeb.

Sounds like Software Development is where you want to be. Any language in mind?

Hello and welcome.

Thanks, guys.

pritaeas, that's the thing if I had a language in mind I've already posted in the appropriate section. Since I haven't touched software development, I'm a bit overwhelmed about the selection of the language. And I really don't see a general section for this type of question.

Hi there!

Maybe start out with something like C# (it's nice and easy for beginners to get going with and you can build a decent application very easily with WinForms etc.)
