Re: Newbie needs Howto about the Creating/Changing of Forms

I am used to VB 6 for several years, but now have (and also want) to
work with VS2005/MFC. I have a students knowledge of C++ (know the
concepts and have been doing some console programms). Now I started
VS2005 and created a MFC project. BUT I cannot find any way to change or
add elements to Main Form.
I have a german book about MFC (new one) but that does not have any
content about creating interfaces - why I am very much dissapointed
about that book.
If you might ask why I do not look into the book about Visual Studio -
that is because the software is owned by the university and we get CDs
but not the according books.

So any help so that I can get started with doing any programming with
Visual interfaces and C++ under Windows is appreciated.


I am not sure what you mean by Visual Interfaces. You can add
controls/dialogs in resrouce editor. Are you using MFC or .Net as you
are talking about a Form. Form concept is more of a VB or .Net thing.
In MFC, you typically deal with Doc/View architecture. For MFC there
are books like that by Jeff Prosise which will help you.
Do you mean "Programming Windows With MFC" from 1999 ? I could not find any newer book from this author (covering c++ and not .net). Is this book a good choose although it is from the VS 6 times ?
