GUI question

[d0s]

Ok im going back to C++ programming. I bought VC++.NET awhile ago and then bought VB.NET and gave that a shot. I really liked the GUI controls for creating the look of the application. But now i want to go back to C++. So is there a interface control that allows you to create the look of it by just clickin on what you want and clickin on the project? i saw i could do it if i create a MFC application, but ive read a few places that MFC is horrible and noone should use it, why i dunt know but thats just what i read. So is there that control when u create a C++ Windows application or does it have to be MFC?? Thanks

So if you have VC++ .NET you can make a lot of with Windows Forms.To do that choose new project then VC++ and then Windows Form Application If you want to make application using MFC you have basic components in toolbox.
