I recently attended and passed with A's my courses in java and C++ but still havent learned what i wanted to when it comes to programming. What i wanted to learn was to design programs like those i use , programs with user interaction ,grophics or even games. What ive got my degree in is making programs to do business applications on a DOS screen (BoRING). What Language should i look into? Any suggestions? Thanks Ray

Java does great GUI design and has tons of classes available to help you do it. Java GUI design tutorial. C++ also works great, you will need to learn how to use the Windows API. C++ Windows API tutorials.

All these will help you build the graphics portion of your program. As far as java goes it uses the swing api which is packaged with java.
