Which BASIC did you try?  Realbasic? Visual Basic?

You should check out some of these beginner's python tutorials:
http://www.honors.montana.edu/~jjc/easytut/easytut.pdf
http://www.dickbaldwin.com/tocpyth.htm
http://www.freenetpages.co.uk/hp/alan.gauld/

and then if you have any questions at all about anything, people on the 
python-tutor list would be glad to help:

If you want to make applications with a graphical user interface (GUI), 
check out wxpython, although they haven't yet released a version that 
works with the new python 2.4 however: http://wxpython.org/
