>Thanks for your reply, what beginner hand book should I read for MS. C++ that you suggest? thank you

There are any number of good books. Some already suggested ...

In addition to these, I would recommend

Anything on MSVC++ published by Que publishing, or just about anything by Sams publishing. One in particular by Que that I found helpful was;

Practical Visual C++ published by Que publishing.

For reference material, I recommend;

C++ Master Reference (IDG Books Publishing) ISBN 0764575244
MFC Programming with Visual C++ 6 (Sams Publishing) Part of the Unleashed Series ISBN 0672315572
Visual C++ 6 (Core Language) Little Black Book (Coriolis Publishing) ISBN 1576103897
