help with AnsiString!!

[Deshman]

ok, first off I will say that i am new to VC++ and MFC. I learned to program Java in school. Anyways, I have a program that was made with Borland and uses the AnsiString variable. Now I am using VC++6 and need to know what i can use in place of AnsiString.

Also, is there a website (like java.sun.com) that will show me the entire MFC and C++ API like Sun does for Java?

Thx guys!

You can use std::string on any platform.

In addition to that, you can use:

• CString in MFC
• CComBSTR in MFC and ATL for Unicode Binary Strings

These are all wrapper classes that make string-handling simple.
