Help with GUI Design in VC++ .NET
-
WEll, I have been using Borland C++ Builder most of my life, and it always made GUI design a breeze. But, now I'm using VC++; I've used it before when writing, say, DLLs, so it hasnt been a problem; however, now that I'm designing a GUI, its causing me lots of headaches. For instance, I only now just found that the filetypes that it looks for when doing, say, file->open, is in resource string table. Or rather, thats what it lists for captions at least, not necessarily where its actually using for the filter. So, I went and changed the caption - and, of course, its just the caption, and not the filter. So, I've been digging to see where the wizard that created my project is actually saving the filter for file-opening, as I want to add more filetypes to its initial filter. Meanwhile, I'm also curious, if I wanted to do so, I do I add menus and toolbars to children of the parent window in a MDI project? As I've been a developer using Borland, I've gotten spoiled with GUI Development :) James A Beggs American Quarter Horse Association Manager of Product Development
