To use the in-built system ones (present on XP or later so long as you have a suitable manifest in your executable[^]), then download the latest SDK compatible with VC6[^] and use something like this:

// Let's presume your CEdit control is called editControl
editControl.SendMessage(EM_SETCUEBANNER, (WPARAM)FALSE, (LPARAM)(L"< enter text here >"));

Java, Basic, who cares - it's all a bunch of tree-hugging hippy cr*p
