This first option is to hire a programmer, which should give you the 
quickest results. If the most important thing is getting the job done, 
then this should be your #1 approach.

Now, if you really want to do it yourself, you will have to do some 
learning yourself. Start with http://docs.python.org, which includes 
tutorials, references and a bunch of other links, in particular go 
through the tutorials. Make sure you pick the documentation 
corresponding to your Python version though, versions 2 and 3 are subtly 
different!

Then, read http://www.catb.org/esr/faqs/smart-questions.html. This is a 
a bit metatopical but still important, and while this doesn't make you a 
programmer in an afternoon, it will help you understand various 
reactions you received here.

hope that gets you started
