Dialog boxes

[joe joe]

I am fairly new to programming and I want to write a program in which a user enters values into a dialog box and then have those values assigned to variables inside my source code so those values can be put inside a mathmatical computation and then have the answer spit back out into a window. I have 4 books on c++ but of course they don't get into the details of doing this. I am using visual c++ 6.0 Any help will be appreciated.

the best to do is check some tutorials. Here's one that could help you with your particular problem:
http://devcentral.iftech.com/learning/tutorials/mfc-win32/vc6tools/5.a(the rest of the URL I don't have)
the title of the tutorial is Understanding the AppWizard and ClassWizard in Visual C++ Version 6.x and it's the step 6 that will really answer you're problems.
Hope it helps
