Doesn Visual Basics cover any of this? If not, what are some good sites/books I can get that will help me learn how to code C and/or C++?

Visual Basic is a completly different language.

I recomend "C++ from the ground up" by Herbert Schildt
It's a great beginners book. Short and precise written with good examples.

If you want to write widows applications "Teach yourself Visual C++ in 21 days" might come in handy, but I would recomend reading the other book first.

Happy coding..

Most of the time they're available as a once-weekly night class.

If you've done any OO in VB, that might help with C++ but only with OO concepts. That's about as much as you'll get transitioning to C++. For the free route, there are plenty of tutorials on the Internet. Although, a book is always nice to have next to you while learning.
