depends on what you want to do ...

if you can do VB6 quite well....

why not c# .net ... Wink
would be the next "real" language to VB ...

another possibility would be java Wink
good for cross platform development

.NET is good for cross platform development as well (Mono).

As far as I know, all the features of C#/.NET work, its just a small percentage of libraries they need to port (mostly WinForms).

Delphi, as it's quite similiar to VB in structure and syntax, and you can advance to Delphi .Net

Id Second Smalltalk, its the dady of oop and if you can grasp the fundamentals of oop then id move to VB.net as this is now fully oop and should no longer be treated as a kiddie language, C# is fine but personaly id avoid Java.

If you do try VB.net then be prepared to relearn the language as it has changed dramaticaly from vb6 and make sure you get hold of 2003 version otherwise you wont get globals unless u make a class with shared properties.

with 2003 you can declare them with the keyword SHARE instead of DIM.

Delphi. No questions asked.

If you really know what your doing the best choice would actually be pascal, provided you know how to write your own libraries for it, it really is the most powerful and flexible language out there.

Java and C/~ are all limited in functionality at some point.

My humble opinion:
Delphi: average IDE based applications. Without serious knowledge.
C++: system applications. Requires some knowledge.
Assembler: cracking and reversing. Requires complex knowledge.

I'd say ASM, that was the first language I learned. It's not really that hard, although, it's not bad to know some advanced math when dealing with ASM.

Syco, C# An object-oriented language devised
and promoted by Microsoft, intended to replace Java, which
it strongly resembles.
C++ is
<language> One of the most used object-oriented languages, a
superset of {C} developed primarily by Bjarne Stroustrup
<bs@alice.att.com> at AT&T Bell Laboratories in 1986.

In C++ a class is a user-defined type, syntactically a
struct with member functions. Constructors and
destructors are member functions called to create or destroy
instances. A friend is a nonmember function that is
allowed to access the private portion of a class. C++ allows
implicit type conversion, function inlining, overloading
of operators and function names, and default function
arguments. It has streams for I/O and references.
