I said I USUALLY program in VB...that does not I always I should ONLY program in it.
The reason I am using VB for this thing is because I like VB, and I want something finished FAST, much faster than I could using C. C etc are not ALWAYS the best languages to use, especially if you want to do something simple fast. I want something done right now, that I can gradually improve on over time, without having to worry about the finer details VB handles for me, I have enough C++ projects to worry about.
And at the moment I have no intention of making it cross platform until I learn Qt, THEN I can make a Linux port.
EDIT:
Considering I want to include this into a whole set of other similar apps (such as a character generator app), VB is a good choice for when it comes to programming languages as I am the only developer working on what will be a big set of programs eventually, which would take more time than I am willing to devote to doing it in C++ at this time.
A Linux port can be a later development.
