I figured I was missing something small, but I didn't know what it was, and I figured someone here would have a clue about what I was missing. I have googled, used msdn where I finally found something that wasn't very good, I have used the tutorials and help with VS2005 and they are absolutely horrible for me to use. Also reading through a 700+ pages in books isn't very efficient if I don't know exactly what I am looking for.


Then try this:

"To avoid asking a programming question in the lounge, it is obvious to me I am missing something in my attempts at handling forms in Visual C++. I posted without getting help here[^] as a reference, but now I am coming looking for what I need to fill in my gaps. I need a tutorial to help me since I am missing some basics, I have googled, I have searched MSDN, but if I don't know what I am looking for how can I find it?
I have .... and .... and .... but it still doesn't help. I don't want to waste my money on yet another book unless it will fill in the basics I am missing. Can anyone recommend a good starting book for doing Visual C++ forms/GUI design and building, please?"

as for the ... for Dummies books.... don't buy them. A) it is self-insulting B) there are far better intro tutorials. You can ask without breaking the rules.
