Not really, other than the resource editor for dialogs, no. You could try
using MFC, which I hardly ever use, as it tries to have some GUI building
capabilities. If you've never used MFC, though, but have used the plain
Win32 API, I think your time is probably better spent in writing your new
code, rather than learning MFC.

It's not complicated, just basic. On the good news side, eVC is obsolete
and will be gone before too long, replaced by...Visual Studio.

I've been trying to write apps in VS .NET, but had no luck in
making them work. So I switched to eVC4. Could anyone
tell me is there some sort of GUI Builder available? Also
I would like to know where is a good place to read something
about making apps for devices in eVC4.
Comparing to VS it looks very complicated, but I got solid
knowledge in C++, and do recognize a lot from some sample
applications I found. I am most curioze about grapfical part of
the application. Well, anything for a start would be great.

Best regards,
