I presently use Pascal, even though it's antiquated, because I once used that language professionally and it is the language I'm most familiar with.
Anyone use Basic or Fortran?

C#, easy hooks into a SQL back end and lowest cost, most examples, etc. You can then web / mobile enable the app etc, Microsoft has the IDE/Development market wrapped up unless your idea of a IDE is Emacs in some obscure text environment that is impossible to get useful work done or have anyone else understand quickly.
The guy who wrote C# at Microsoft, came from Borland (Delphi programming language was an extension of Object Pascal FYI)
