I am a big time newb at C++. Just taking my first class in it. So far we have covered the basics of DOS style apps. So far we've made a couple simple apps like a program that draws an empty box out of asterics and finding the greatest common divisor of 2 numbers, etc..

I am wanting to push ahead and learn a bit about amking a basic windows app. Something very simple with a form and a button and a text box and a listbox where I can just add items to a list box, or something along those lines.

Firstly, I know there is a dialog box thing in VS C++ that allows you to make a simple window, but I have no clue how to use it.

Secondly are there ocx or controls that can be added to a form that have built in events, such as onclick etc...?

Basically, I just want to get a taste of making a windows app isntead of these lame DOS style apps. Any good tutes out there on the net?
