    Sorry this isnt an answer. I think this topic should go into the faq. Like a small section on the difference between C\C++\C#, and Win32\MFC\OWL.

    Win32 is a concept not a language It's the collection of APIs, support programs, and documentation that makes up the 32-bit layer of Windows 9x and most of Windows NT.

    C# is Microsoft's new language for .NET, and it's actually quite nice, despite what people have been saying about it.

    MFC is an object-oriented wrapper to the Win32 API. It's fat and slow and you don't really need it The Win32 API is the clean way to program for Windows, using CreateWindowEx and all that lot.
