Hi,
My friend does C programming.But the programs work in a DOS environment.He wants a GUI for the program kinda like some buttons and empty spaces to enter the values,etc.What should he study now to get what he wants ?? VB ??

Thanks in advance.

GUI canbe created in C as well but it is annoying. As ur friend is comfortable with C, ask him to do C#.net

If he knws C, then tell him to do VC. GUI Apps in VC are very easy.

thanks guys for the prompt reply.

That's what Visual Studio is for

tell him to learn c++ and then GUI in vc++ is very easy..

Thats why there is a difference between C++ and *Visual* C++

Alternatively, you can try Tcl/Tk for a cross-platform compatible solution

use bloodshed devC++

my god so many replies....thanks guys.I think he'll settle on Visual c++.

Even I wanted to know that........

Is Visual C++ the only way? I don't want to buy Visual Studio

... Isn't there a freeware alternative???

see my post above

Ok. I have Bloodshed Dev C++. The only difference in Dev C++ and TC is that Dev C++ has the MingW compiler and follows latest ANSI/ISO standards. How do I make GUI programs with a development environment???

Try Visual C++ Express Edition which is available as a free download on the MS website...
