I tried eclipse its pretty good. &nbsp;One of the biggest learning tools I have used while getting my start using VBA was highlighting a method and pressing F1 to see the help for that method. &nbsp;Eclipse does not have this capability. &nbsp;Does netbeans? &nbsp;<br />

Also didn't MS make something called J++ is that the same as JAVA? &nbsp;I am taking a Comp Sci class and we have to use JAVA but I wanted to try and use some of the same learning techniques.

Development in most programming languages is frequently done with an editor or integrated development environment (IDE). An IDE is a software application that provide comprehensive facilities to computer programmers for software development. An IDE normally consists of a source code editor, build automation tools and a debugger. XCode, Visual Studio, Adobe Dreamweaver and Eclipse are some of the more popular development tools, but an editor or IDE can be anything from simple text editors to sophisticated programs.

Java is a platform-independent, object-oriented programming language and run-time environment, designed to have as few implementation dependencies as possible such that developers can write one set of code across all platforms using libraries. Most devices will not run Java natively, and require a run-time component to be installed in order to execute a Java program.
