so i've started c++ a few days ago, but i searched how to create a nice gui and that seems pretty hard, so im asking if i could code a program in c++ and then make the gui in visual basic.
is that posible? how? Very Happy

if its not then recomend me please a language that is easy to create and manipulate the gui but not as elemental as visual.

PS: sorry for my english, it isn't my first language.

make a dll with all your functions then add a .def file to the project with the library name and exports in C++

then in VB make ur GUI and load ur dll made in c++ with VB and declare all the functions from it (dont ask me, i dont know VB)

u can then call them like regular functions within ur VB project...

edit: here - googled and found: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/106553

edit 2: that link is for VB3, declaring a dll in VB.NET or VB6 i think is a bit different so u'll have to find out how to do it with higher versions Smile

you should try and use visual studio 2005 vb.net, nice looking, if that's what you want.

P.S. your English is better than some people on this forum who only speak english Very Happy

to use .dll function is about to know the function, in which case, you supposly make it.. so, it won't be hard for you to use "call" fuction.
