Hi,

You will need something to read. I bought "Mastering Delphi <version
number>" by Marco Cantu (+/- $50) when I moved from VB to Delphi about 3
years ago, it helped me a lot. Without a good book or tutorial it is very
difficult to start learning how to program. Once you know the basics, you
can use the Delphi help files for more.

Marco Cantu's homepage http://www.marcocantu.com/ has interesting links. He
has a book online called Essential Pascal, those are topics not covered in
Mastering Delphi but essential for understanding the structure and syntax of
pascal. And a followup called Essential Delphi.

Once you are a bit familiar with Delphi, you can download Canopus'
encapsulation of the AW SDK which allows you to make bots (if that is what
you want): http://www.canopus.org/delphi/delphi.html

You're not going to learn anything if you don't invest into it...
If you don't buy books, you'll probably get nowhere
I started programming in Borland C++ when I was 13, I just bought at least 5 books and read them... I wouldn't have learnt the
language if I hadn't... books are the best way to go, along with a lot of practice... There are probably other ways, but you won't
learn as fast...

interested you can learn a lot of things online.
