Years ago i use to teach myself Borland C++ ver5 (1998) some good ebooks you can grab online are the "teach yourself in 21 days" plenty of programming ones to try, they teach you the basics step by step with end chapter assignments that you should be able to complete before moving on to the next chapter. By the time your done you can at the very least code basic windows & databases. Anyone remember the 'Hello World' window most common starters window to learn for C programming, can still write that one out in C+ without looking.
Once you learn the basics to medium then move on to the more professionals studies where coding gets much harder. You could google for online tutorial sites as well.
