Do you think that a book is the way to go
Yes, you obvius need some way of learning the scope of C++, a book is an exelent way to achieve that.

why people dont like VB?
Because you need the runtime library with VB, if you distribute a C++ program, then the compiled binary will provide the needed code in order to make it work anywhere..
If it's a VB program, you might end up with half the users asking, "where can I find vbrun200.dll ??"
Those are some of the key factors to why, those who've moved on to C++ (or any other compiled language) are somewhat hostile towards VB.
