Ted,
If you know nothing about programming, then you've got a long way ahead of you before you're making a complete game, but it's a fun road.
I would recommend a college class or two to get the basics of programming, or there are several books out there that are great for beginners, and explain a lot of the basic concepts of programming. I learned most of the basic concepts of what I know from the book "Tricks of the Game Programming Gurus".
You have to learn a programming language before you can do any type of programming, game or not. I would recommend C as a language, and C Programming For Dummies as a starter book.

As a follow up to the programmer above, I think you should learn C, goto cprogramming.com for your questions or here whichever you want.
but goto cprogramming.com and follow their links they will help.
