Can windows platform application(GUI) make using C like Visal Basic Or need to use C++.I mean can we write a programme which can run on windows interface without use Dos platform.

Of course you can. GUI isn't property of programming language. You can create windows GUI app with windows API, but itsn't that easy like in Visual Basic.
If you plan create app with expanded GUI, i suggest that you should use C++ and some opensource GUI library.
 

yes u can . But why do u bother about creating windows and all than concentrating on ur problem.All you need is the compiler supports win32 application programming.
 

You can make it with Win32 API in C++.
 

Any thing can be possible with C, even these win32 API's can be customized or created to define to do the process automaticall from windows... one is microsoft vc++ & VB whics is easy for using thees API's
 

The Win32 API is *defined* in C.
Find yourself a copy of the Microsoft Win32 Programmer's Reference manual.
 

The best (old) book on Windows C programmnig ... using Win32 API ... is the 5Th edition of Programming Windows by Charles Pelzold (1998 MSPress) ... you can try to get it here ;o) ... in HelpFileFormat

Code:

bye
 

any programming lanuage will run as long as you compile it on win32...

Save yourself a lot of time and hassle and learn C# and maybe VB for the .NET platform. The Win32 API is a monstrosity. That's why MS has spent the hundreds of m illions of dollars to make .NET. Download Sharpdevelop (free) and the MS .NET 2.0 Framework (free) and go at it.
