i m working on my final year project which will have some GUI and will be interfaced by serial, parallel port.

i dont know VB or Labview programming (will learn one of these)

PLZ give here ur recommendations and comments for which langauge or software to choose and learn giving their incentives to the other

thanks very much
 

If your project is going to require a serial or parallel port interface, I would recommend that you learn LabView. Programming the serial or parallel port interface is definitely going to be easier in LabView, and even the GUI programming will probably be easier in LabView.
 

if u dont know vb...then go for labview.
its gui are very attractive and powerfull
 

VB is good if you need MS Access kind of database and if you use any ActiveX. The Serial and Parallel ports can be accessed through VB too. If you are going to use any special hardware like RS485 to RS232 converter, Mod Bus etc, you need LabVIEW. LabVIEW is having good support for instrument controllers and Addon cards. If you feel that your hardware may grow and you need future support then best choice is LabVIEW.
