Which Programming Language For A Newbie

As I near the completion of my little B9 I am contemplating programming. While the EZ-B is very robust for non-programmers, there is so much more I can do with code. My problem is I don't know any code. So as a total beginner, which should I use? VB, C#, C++ I just don't know which would be easiest for my old brain to wrap to itself around. Any suggestions out there? Whichever seems the best I will get a "Dummies" book to start learning.

Thanks,

I picked up Sams Teach Yourself C++ in 24hrs.

I'll check around for a C# book next trip to chapters.

The EZ-SDK includes LOTS of examples. You can learn C# really easily by looking at my examples.

The most challenging part (if you have a basic understanding of programming) is learning Visual Studio. For example, how to configure and compile. Also what all the files are... And the difference between them.
