Python is pretty easy to get into, and ESRI's python libraries are much more user friendly than ArcObjects.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>For programming with ArcObjects(ESRI's API), the two best documented languages are C# and VB.net. There is also Java and C++. </SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>If you really are new to programming and need to work with ArcGIS i suggest you stick with Python (python hangs out in the Geoprocessing forum).</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Fri, 19 Nov 2010 13:27:40 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcobjects-sdk-questions/new-to-programming-and-want-to-learn-how/m-p/428319#M11569 FrankPerks 2010-11-19T13:27:40Z
