You got ripped off, no matter what you paid for it. Borland 4.5 is too old to be useful these days, and Borland gives away their 5.5 compiler for free.>like to be able to put a shoping …

C and C++ really aren't the best options for this. Look into Perl or PHP if you want to write it yourself.

If you really want to learn C++ from a package deal I recommend this ...
Get yourself the book "Standard C++ Bible" by Stevens and Walnum, published by Hungry Minds. This 800 page plus book is loaded with samples and comes with a CD-ROM containing all the samples and a nifty little Mingw32 C++ based IDE/compiler called Quincy 99. The IDE has a reference option to the book. I am not shamelessly promoting this book, I just happen to like it!
BTW Quincy has a website and is actually a very good and free C++ IDE/compiler package. Very nice for the more serious student.
