HI folks,
I got the Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0, but when I try to run a program, which I made it. The screen says….
C:\ProgramFiles\Microsoft visual studio\My projects\
Masud project\Debug\Masud project.exe
This file does not exist. Do you want to build it?
Thanks for any help
Masud

The answer is Yes.

You have to build an EXE files in order to run the application. The.EXE file doesn't exist until you make it from your code.

If you make any alterations to the application and then run it you will probably get the message ...project.exe already exists, do you with to overwrite it?

The answers again is Yes, unless you want to have multiple copies of your application.

Thank you Stuart…But how about the Visual thing? This is Visual C++ 6.0...and I would like to see my presentation in Visual windows not in DOS. Could you explain to me that how do I see my C++ file in Visual window like the way I see in VB?
Thanks for any help

You need to create a Windows application (MFC App Wizard from FILE/NEW)

Then you can use the VC++ Form editor (similar to VB) to create forms.

Oh, but let me warn you. If you are a VB programmer and you think you are going to understand C++/MFC...you are in for a rude awakening.

C++ and MFC will require that you build event pipes to handle the WM events (WM = Windows Message) and you will probably use quite a bit of Win32 APIs if you program is going to be non-trivial.

I spent 8 years working in C++ and MFC and as most others will confirm, after you see the control that you have in C++, you might start to form a disdain for VB. That is why you can find so many posts where people hate VB.

If you want the ease of VB, but want to use an elegant language with power, try C#. There is a free environment for it from microsoft (I forget what it is called but you should be able to find it by googling it or searching at www.programmingforums.com or even Microsoft.com)

yea, I went the MFC route, very neat because I hated the whole VB style of doing things, I wanted to know how everything worked.

MFC isnt to hard to learn there is just a lot to it.

But you have to first start with the DOS programs before you get into windows.

And VB cant do near as much as C++ can so I say stick with it ;), it just takes some effort.

GIMPS

Special Thanks for Chi & Gimps....I was learning the C++ from the Online tutorial.
What book you guys recommennd for me to learn C++/C/C# or extra issue?
Masud

I used C++ in 12 easy lesson as my first, then after that youll know enough to get into mfc ;).

If your gonna go book shoppin I recomend amazon.com

lots of cheap used books, especialy visual c++ in 12 easy lessons.

GIMPS

The brst C++ book out there IMHO bar none is C++ How to program from Deitel

Amazon Listing

the 4th edition is just as good as the 5th, so if you can find that it might be around $20.00 or so.

Good luck,
Chi
