I'm going to be slightly controversial here and ask why you want to use
Ruby to build a Window's GUI? There are lots of great reasons to do so
(it's a beautiful language, your GUI will probably be portable among
multiple OSs, the community is great, etc), and if it's purely for a
learning exercise, then brilliant. However, if you're creating a Windows
only, GUI-based production application, that needs to feel natively to
Windows, then, as a beginner, there are maybe easier solutions. I'd
personally recommend exploring C#.net and the technologies around it. It's
pretty simple and quick to learn, and Visual Studio makes creating the
Window's GUIs stupidly easy.

Definitely explore the options people have suggested, and if you don't end
up using Ruby for this, do invest the time to learn it anyway. It'll make
your life happier.
