Hey, I was reading a book based on DOS based C++. I'd rather learn Windows based C++.

Does anybody know any good guides online for Window based C++.

Thanks,

Windows based c++ is not something you learn instead of command prompt based c++. If you are still learning C++ at all, you should definitely stick with the command prompt until you gain a good understanding of all of the basic language features. Afterwards, you should start looking for resources on the win32 API. Basically, Windows features are not inherently a part of C++. Only worry about them when you no longer have to worry about the programming language itself.

If you want to program on Windows, use VB. If you want to learn C++ in Windows, then you'll have to learn how Windows works. Buy a Windows C++ book, you'll thank me later for the advice.

Once you start to understand Win programing, goto http://www.codeguru.com/
