You have to learn programming as it is the language through which you communicate with the system,
though there are apps available those help you to build apps but they are not of much use ,
the easiest program you can learn is visual basic and go for a start then you can enter the world of programming when you get the interest

Visual Studio is very easy to learn, and has a lot of functionality in-built.

Others have mentioned Visual Studio but neglected to say that there is an Express Edition which is free. There are some limitations, but for a beginning programmer they won’t matter until you gain some experience in software development.As far as initial programming language, Visual Basic was mentioned as a starting point, but it still has some limitations that you may want to avoid so you may want to start with VC# instead. It is more flexible and offers better options when coding in some situations. It also has a tendency to teach the beginning programmer better technique than VB does.

You need to learn programming or pay someone who knows how to create apps with your requirements.

You need to learn computer languages such as C++, .net, C# etc. Just join a course in any reputed institute and you will start learning from basics to advanced. It requires a lot of time, patience and practice.

Then you should learn. Unfortunately, unlike RPGMaker or Gamemaker or any other ‘helper’ softwares, you cannot make an application without actually coding it by yourself. I suggest you to team up with your friend who knows how to program to bring your idea into real apps. If you still want to do it by yourself, try getting your feet wet with these sites. They offer programming lessons via interactive projects.

codecademy.com

Edit: As per ha14′s answer, apparently there are helper for Windows software making too. Try it, but don’t actually rely on it. Such softwares can’t be used to make complex, out of the box programs without knowledge, no matter how they’re advertised. Pika does look a lot like Visual Basic.

I would recommend to start looking at Python (http://www.python.org/) because it is very friendly and easy to start. You can find a lot of good tutorials, and even some classes online like http://www.udacity.com/overview/Course/cs101/CourseRev/apr2012.
After a certain level of complexity, I would take a look at the big guns: Microsoft .Net and/or Java. If you will only program for Windows, then go with .Net (it is not a language but an execution environment in which you can use several different languages). See http://www.microsoft.com/net to start.

Learn C#, C++, Python, Perl.. etc It’s not like this.. But you have to first choose what type of software you wanna build.. You can even use microsoft exel to create a software..
So, in other words, first you have to choose the type of programs you wanna create. Than depending on that, you have to learn some programming language, and in the end use a software like Visual Studio (Which is the best for this job.. I think)..
After this there are a lot of other software that could improve your program.. but still the first step is to learn a programming language!

Mobile apps are hot today. But hiring a programmer is too expensive. I used snappii.com to make apps. It’s really easy, the web service allows to make mobile apps in minutes, and without programming skills at all. If you are short of time, they can make an app for you very quickly.

For developing applications for Windows, you need to code through some programming language.

There is no easiest one in terms of programming, all that depends is upon the way we look at.

To get started with programming, C could be a smarter step.

You have to learn something if you want to create your own software.
Get Visual Studio Express Edition
Learn C# from online tutorials on YouTube etc.
Start developing from small screens and functions and gradually add more and more.
