    Does it have to be C++? Sounds like something you could very quickly with VB using the Win32 api.

    Unfortunatley yes.

    I'm a vb proggy myself and I could that but I need it in C++.

    I have my GUI designed and all my supporting code written but I never really did much Visual C++ so I'm sort of lost.

    Maybe someone knows a good resource or crash course in writing C++ GUIs ? I'm using MS VC++ 6.0 SP3

    Teach Yourself Visual C++ in 21 Days in PDF format. I think it could be what you're looking for, it teaches the basics of C++/MFC fairly fast. It gets pretty tedious by the end of the first week, most of your time "programming" is copying in stuff for the various elements of the GUI, naming them, setting attributes...
