How long do u think it will take a person to learn visual basic?
   
  
 
 
   

 
 
Are the syntax of it similar to c/c++?
 
Learning a programming language is one thing, and learning the things you need to know in order to use it well is another - algorithms, data structures, design patterns etc. It takes a short time to learn a language - how to write if-statements, loops, functions - but a long time to use these things to create an effective and efficient program that solves a problem. It's that move from being a mechanic to being an engineer that is really hard.
 
the syntax is different form C/C++

Let me give you an example.

C/C++ 
int count;

Visual Basic
Dim count As Integer

Visual Basic is a totally different world my friend... 
 
Lol, however, VB is much simpler overall - but that transition from mechanic -> engineer is what's really attacking me atm lol
 
don't worry man with hard work and dedication u will become an engineer. 
 
I agree with Samath.
