Hi guys, firstly I would like to introduce myself. I am currently an Automation developer and have experience in VB Scripting. I would like to get back into programming and as a first project am about to pick up C#.

I am interested in making an application that retrieves live stock prices using Web Services and then draws a graph which updates as do the prices.

Can someone please tell me what I need in order to make this application; what framework, can it be done in C# and what modules/classes I may need to draw the graphs?

Also what is the best development environment that I should use and any books that would be relevant to what I need to do.

Thanks

Bad

Since you have had experience with VB script you should try VB2005 Express, it
comes with a complete beginners video series and is as easy to use as C#
In fact they are both compiled on the same Runtime Language Platform, Visual Studio.
VB2005 Express is free, at www.msdn.com
have fun.
