I find Visual Basic quite powerful as a tool for quickly creating Windows
applications.  The debugging support is also quite good.  You should take
a look at it.  This version of Basic has all the modern programming
constructs (although it still has the awful Basic syntax characteristics).
Also, you can call DLL entries which allows you to do the heavy duty stuff
in any appropriate language while taking advantage of the good user 
interface support from Visual Basic.

Another approach you can take is Object Vision from Borland, which gets you
into the object oriented world.
