bah, if you have the cash(yea right) or can get it free/cheap somehow(getting work to buy it or something) you may as well get the version with ALL the bells and whistles. like i said before, if you have the cash, get Visual Studio. if you have TONS of cash, get VS Enterprise edition.

Well Borland is the best for learning. There are also examples like games and other tools in Borland that you could build and test. If you are going to make simple programs then you can download free compilers from the net like Miracle C and other free demo compilers. Its useless to have more than 2 compilers for C, C++ and VC++.
You can easily find many compilers on the net as there are many College Students who design compilers for their projects.

I appreciate all of your responses and taking the time to help me out.
As I do have some software connections at work and with friends, I don't pay for ANY software, if my friends don't have it, I just check out astalavista.com
I'll give the MS V C++ enterrpise and pro a shot. But from what you all have to say about Bloodshed I'll probably stick with that one and give it a try.
thanks again to all for your responses and for you not bashing me because I can't program in C yet.
