Online information about programming the Win32 API is, IMHO, spotty at best.
The best reference is the Windows Platform SDK, although if you are using a <=
56k modem, this may not be desirable or feasible.  I suggest turning to your
local bookstore/library for help.

Using the PlatSDK's examples, I was able to code up a few basic windowed
applications, although advanced concepts and API calls are a bit hard to
remember without some good dox along with the code.
