[c++] How to create program in Windows?
I've had some background in c++ (2 years of highschool, Codewarrior Learning Edition). I'd like to learn how to program in Windows and create those fancy interactive menus and such. Would I have to use Visual Studios for this or 3rd party compiler will do? Currently I have Bloodshed Dev C++. Starting tips, tutorial web sites, good books on this matter are all welcome.
Thank you.

You have two choices, winAPI or MFC . Here is a winAPI tutorial : http://www.winprog.net/tutorial/ . Learning windows programming can be a bit tricky, but you ll get used to it if you keep practicing..
Yours, -Elly

If you're interested in MFC, theres a few tutorials on using it, they are as follows:
http://esprit.campus.luth.se/~humus/...ork/index.html This tutorial, while it talks about OpenGL rendering, also shows how to set up a simple MFC interface. http://www.buginthemachine.com/eProgMFC.php This should give you all the rest of the MFC information you need.

Another possibility is to use qt - that way your source can easily be compiled for both Windows and *nix/BSD (If you care). Check here for more info.
