Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0
Just wondering how come my programs that I code only start in DOS? How do I make them run in a Windows box dialog?
I just started C++ too. TIA. |

Newbie progs always run in DOS. It will take lines of coding for something C++/Assembly to run in Windows. It's just how the language is setup. VB 6 on the other hand requires 0 lines to make a form in Windows.
This is why I believe that it is better to start programming with VB6. It's fairly easy to use because of its GUI. Plus how many students actually know/use DOS? All my classmates didn't even know how to make/del directories. It was easy for me because I had a PC before Windows and I had to use DOS.

Actually you can make a Window with Visual C++, just choose Win32 program on startup.

selecting a win32 project type adds the necessary libs to link a win32 program, however, you still need to know win32 api in order to create windowed apps in VC++.
