Unfortunately, to create a program, you have to know a programming language.

The simplest language to learn (that's also fast to learn) is probably either C#.NET or Visual Basic.NET. Here are two sample programs:

Visual Basic.NET:
    
Module HelloWorld

Sub Main()
Console.WriteLine("Hello, world!")
End Sub

End Module


C#.NET:
    
using System;

namespace HelloWorld
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
Console.WriteLine("Hello, world!");
}
}
}



You could also try a programming language like Java, which is fairly easy to learn, and is cross-platform (it runs on Windows, Mac, Linux, etc.). Here's a sample Java program:
    
public class HelloWorld
{
public static void Main(String[] args)
{
System.out.println("Hello, world!");
}
}


Usually, I recommend people start programming with Java or C# (I typically recommend Java over C#), however, in your case, if you're looking to make a single program as a hobbyist, you may actually want to consider VB.NET (Visual Basic.NET).

Here is a tutorial for Visual Basic.NET: You must login or register to view this content.

Depending on what type of "program" you want to create, you could just use visual studio. And use the toolbox to add things. When you add it you don't have to write much code so very little knowledge is needed. Granted programs created this way have limited functionality.

ummm, it depends on what type of program & what type of programing language he uses, if he wants to make a simple notepad in vb it will be simple coding, or even a simple notepad in c# could be simple coding, but a simple notepad in c++ will be a bit more difficult if he doesnt know anything.

and as for a first language you should spend about 2-3 weeks studying vb, or c# whichever you feel more comfortable with, study it, learn it, then try to make your own original idea of a program without any tutorials, then move on to a more complex language like c++ or python. then do the same thing, also if you choose the vb route go from that to c# as it will help you understand as they are quite similar.
but all in all the first real gui program you should make is either a notepad, or a calculator, those seem to be choice favorites. don't start off on something to hard, or you'll get frustrated, and hate programming.

hope i helped
