Dev-Cpp It''s free, and it''s quite good. Good luck. ;Microsoft Visual C++ Is a profetional program.

I was thinking of getting one from Borland but if i do which would i get Professional or personal?Or should i get it from a dif companythanks in advance-mental-   I go on and off in my C++ learning. Why? Well, I''m always finding cool programs and stuff that I wanna try, I''m not very consistent. Like one day, I would spend hours on my RPG, while the next, I would be reading my OpenGL Game Programming book, and sometimes, I''ll be using Photoshop the whole day, or 3dmax.I started with Dev-C++ until I managed to get VS.NET from a nearby University. It doens''t really matter. Dev-C++ is as good as VS.NET to start with.Actually, you might get distracted with VB and C# and making icons with VS, while in Dev-C++, you''re not as easily distracted.
