    Biginner quesion!

    Hi..I'm not very advanced in VC++, I only know some basics. I need to know how would I create a window from scratch?? In other words, I want to create an exe that displays a simple window with nothing on it. Because I know that C++ creates console apps, I was wondering how I would create a window! Also, how do I know what header files I have and what is included in them and how I use those header files!

    BTW - I have MS VC++ 6 but I don't want to use the app wizard and stuff. I want to do it manually!

    You can look at a simple sample that I got from parksie.

    The FAQ works, it's the users that don't

    What's the point in tutorials then?
    Use
    writing software in C++ is like driving rivets into steel beam with a toothpick.
    writing haskell makes your life easier:
    reverse (p (6*9)) where p x|x==0=""|True=chr (48+z): p y where (y,z)=divMod x 13
    To throw away OOP for low level languages is myopia, to keep OOP is hyperopia. To throw away OOP for a high level language is insight.
