[RESOLVED] Console to forms

[Simoninman]

Good morning everybody,
I have been struggling searching on the internet for a few days now, I have been learning c++ and am getting quite proficient creating console applications, however i am struggling to find a basic tutorial to create a forms application that will just basically show output in a textbox from what my console application would have done anyway

For example:
Printf("loading...");
// do something
Printf("loaded\n");

All contained in a form with a close button say

If anyone knows a good place for me to start it would be very much appreciated

It all depends on what you can or want to use.
For native Visual C++ applications I'd recommend to use MFC.
For managed C++ - Programming Windows Forms with Managed Extensions for C++

Here is a basic tutorial for MFC (and VC++ 6, but you can simply skip the environment chapters) http://www.informit.com/library/libr...ual_C_PlusPlus. Pay attention to chapter 5: http://www.informit.com/library/cont...Plus&seqNum=60.
