    MFC is for VC++. I believe its still available in VC++.NET so I guess you can still use it.

    Similar, but it is a COM library if I understand right. I think it is more about helping you create a GUI, but I could be wrong.

    Like I said, I could be wrong, I am not a C++ programmer.

    Except in C++ you can still write unmanaged code (non .NET). MFC kinda makes making windows applications easier, its like bringing the VB Form designer to C.

    hmm one more question, does it have classes like GDI too? (can you draw shapes and stuff with it?)

    Well it has classes not really for drawing but for common windows items, you don't need the MFC to draw with. For instance has a CDialog class for what in vb would be a form and other classes that work like the controls and things like that.

    Its MFC, Microsoft Foundation Classes, or the classes that make up a basic windows applications, since C/C++ isn't specific to Windows, exactly.
