Hi Jim,
Nice to see someone from The Woodlands here! 
Have you seen our videos on YouTube?
We have put together playlists for many different things, including Getting Started, Intro to Xojo Course, Tutorials, OOP concepts, etc.
Also, we offer a free Intro to Programming textbook. Since you mentioned Xojo for Mac Desktop, here is a playlist that might be helpful.
Thanks, Dana. Do you live in the Woodlands, or in Austin?
Yes I have, and I am methodically working my way through them.
Since you asked, I do have a suggestion: It would be very helpful to have a list of videos, in the recommended order of viewing, along with the example files for that video. It seems like you used to have such a list, but is no longer available. At least I can’t find it if it still exists. Specifically, this page: https://documentation.xojo.com/getting_started/introduction/welcome!.html
There is a Video section there, but the links take you directly to YouTube, and then there is no link to the example file.
Also, you have a lot of great videos and playlists on YouTube. Here again, it would be great to have a curated list of these, in the order that a person new to Xojo should view them, and, very important, always provide a link to the example files.
Right now its a bit like being given a college catalog of all courses without a curriculum showing you the best order to take the courses in. I know you need to allow for different backgrounds of your new users, but maybe listing the optimum prerequisites would be helpful.
IAC, I am really liking what I am seeing, and I think learning Xojo will be faster than most other languages/IDEs. Hopefully, you’ll have a sale soon so I can get a discount on a new license.
I went to high school in The Woodlands and still have family there. Though I live in Austin, I am there (in Panther Creek) quite often! 
Good feedback on the videos, will look into this more and see what we can do to make it clearer and easier for new users.
