It's hard to get a person into programming if he/she doesn't have any 
interest on it.

One method you might want to try is to teach her how to solve her 
computer problems via programming. For starter, this can be as simple as 
Excel formula. Then as new problem got more complex, teach her how to 
use macros. This will indirectly teach her the BASIC language including 
some of the VB language.

HTH.
