Windows 98 Programing Bible

This introduction to Windows programming for C and C++ programmers begins with the fundamentals, from menus, mouse buttons, controls, dialogue boxes, and sound, to the Microsoft Application Architecture, including documents, views, SDI, MDI, and printing and print preview functions. Later sections explore advanced MFC topics such as tool and status bars, common controls, threads and database programming. The book also teaches how to extend an application by writing DLLs or using third-party libraries, how to put ActiveX controls and the Internet to work, and how to make use of other Visual Studio tools to speed development. The attached CD-ROM includes all sample code and applications, as well as third-party tools.
