If you want to get this done quickly, I recommend Visual Basic. Pick up a copy of Microsoft Visual Basic 6, and The Complete Idiot's Guide to Visual Basic 6, and you'll be done in no time.

yeah visual basic is a good language but there is the point you have to spend a few hundred to get the vb ide :(

You get the Working Model edition free with the book, which is alright but doesn't let you compile. Of course, if you really want the proper app, there are ways...

A PHP web based interface would be a "free" method to use... although, VB is very nice for quick and dirty GUI apps.

There is always the option of Borland C++ Builder X, you can download the personal edition for free. It is fully functional, and has a complete IDE.. everything you would need to create the said application.
