This sample shows how to make a window using pure API. There are already many more but one this site but this one has loads of comments; possibly too many. Well anyway I wrote the sample for my own web site so decided to post it here as well. My screen shot does show a windows 98 and windows xp looking window side by side but don't get confused by that. All this is is a simple window but I was just trying to show how it works on Windows XP as well as older versions of windows.

This code shows and explains how to make controls on a window using pure API, using CreateWindow and CreateWindowEx. This example shows how to make list boxes, edit controls, and buttons. Not only does it tell you how to make them but also how to use the. Unlike other examples I’ve seen this example also shows you how to enable TAB, Shift+Tab and other normal windows navigation things like Alt+ to use a button. This example also shows how to use malloc and pointers the text of a edit control or selected item in a list box. It allows you to add items and remove items to the list box control at run and design time aswell. I hope this code helps you, please give me some feedback! (the zip includes VC++6 and DevC++ project/workspace files)

This is a demo program I wrote for myself in order to use a menu item without having to click on it. This allows the usage of menus in other programs without having to switch to them and using the menu. This is going to be used in the future as a part of my Autosave program, a program designed to automatically save whatever documents you are working on so that in case of a crash your work would be saved, even if you forgot to do so manually. Originally written in Visual Basic, I switched over to C++ (starting with Version 2.00), and therefore had to rewrite the entire program. In Visual Basic, I had used the SendKeys command to use the menus of other programs to activate the Save menu item. As this function is not considered a safe way of sending to different programs, as other programs can accidentally intercept the send, I needed to find a better way to do it. By directly using the menus of the other programs, this problem is overcome. This program is completely documented and commented. Please check the readme for more information.
