VS2008 Visual C++: File->New->Project->... 1

[jslmvl]

Hi,

I hope here is the correct place to ask about MFC.

Can you tell me the steps in VS2008 Visual C++: File->New->Project->... until I can see a form and some controls (sorry, I an from VB).

Thanks a lot.

Start up Visual Studio

Click on How do I
Click on Getting Started
Click on Creating a Windows Forms Control

Follow the instructions

xwb,

After start up VS2008, I find "How do I" under the menu "Help". After click "How do I" -> "Visual C++", I got "Information Not Found" in another window.

I then tried to open MSDN by Start -> All programs -> Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 -> Micsosoft Visual Studio 2008 documentation -> How do I -> Visual C++, I also got "Information Not Found" in another window.

Do you think something wrong in my MSDN?

You've probably installed VS2008 without installing the help.

Try

I installed MSDN.....that is not help? I need to reinstall VS2008?

I've never had that problem before. Not sure what to suggest. Guess you could install it if you had a few hours spare.
