Getting Started In Direct-X

Is there anyone out there that can help me. I have alot of free time on my
hands with health problems and wanted to stuff around making a Ultima 5
style RPG using Visual Basic 6 + Direct-X 8.0 .... Now I have tried to find
a decent set of tutorials that start fromt he basic of writing a Direct-X 2D
game, but everything has been heavy code that is beyond my understanding
atm. If someone has any suggestions I would greatly appreciate it, cause I
think this will keep me busy if I get started....
