you'll find many online books regarding different subject, and yes I did see a Teach yourself Visual C++ 6 in 21 days.. there are many other for VC5 or 4.. but these books are completely free.. you do however have to get a account which is also free.. but to read the books you need to log in.. just like to post a message you need to put your username and password...

HOPE THAT HELPS ALL OF YOU!! lol oh and uhh there's VB books there too.. acctually there's atleast 50 different types of books up there.. go there that should help ya!
