George,
	A similar message came through the other day and since noone
mentioned it then I think I will now. There is only one book from which to
learn Windows programming and that is Petzold's book, Programming WIndows
(or something like that). It covers everything, all the examples are in
straight C (no MFC, no OWL), and there really is no substitute. (A close
second IMHO is The Windows API Bible).
