Hmm that depends, do you know any coding language? if not i'd suggest learning one..

Dont ask us what language because everyone preffers another, better to find out yourself if the code suits your needs.

It also depends on what the program is going to do. And how or where you want it to work. Certain languages a best for "local" machines, other languages do things over the web.

If you could be more specific about the program you have in mind, then perhaps we could be more specific in our answers.

Winamp style.. you could use alot of languages for this.. maibe easiest to learn i think.. (probaly a whole lot people disagree) java..

You should snoop around sourceforge.net and look what other people did, what language they used and if it is what your looking for.. maibe you can ask if u can help develop a program there.. (Mostly they like to help beginners learn coding)

As far as I can see, this way you won't get anywhere. I suggest you find an article called "QBasic for kids by Ted Felix". Really useful stuff - that way you will start with the basics, because you can't expect to make a good and useful program in one week. Learning programming takes months, ages! And don't be disappointed because it says "for kids". I'd rather call it "for beginners" wink.gif
