Here is an example on owner drawn control and menus (it is MFC and the comments are not in English).

So that's basically useless to a real programmer j/k

For strings, you don't really need a tutorial:

#include <iostream>
#include <string>

using namespace std;

void main() {
    string x = "Hello";
    string y = x + " ggg " + x.substr(2,2);

    cout << y << endl;
}

I guess <string> is different from <string.h>, cuz when i tried string.h, there were a lot of weird stuff... btw, what is the last part of the string y=... line for? with the 2.2?

[parksie]

string::substr(start, length)

Basically it's Mid$

What is the :

using namespace std;

for??

To prevent name collisions, everything in the STL is in a namespace called "std". So, if you already have a list class, it won't kill it.
