You have a couple choices.
Easiest and most lazy way: Just create a resource form and use the resource editor.
Next way is to use ResEdit, which allows you to create a form using the resource editor, and then export it as API.
Last way is just to use CreateWindowEx and create all your controls.

If your using Borland C++ you can basically ignore all this cause borland's creator handles everything Sad

Borland C++ is easy to use with GUIs, but I have cracked microsoft visual studio

I would personally go with using CreateWindowEx. Thats what I do and it gives you the most control. And its really not that hard to use.

It's not a form. It's a window. Every thing you see on the screen is a window. Other than directx stuff. but that's different.

Use CreateWindow and look at TheForger's win32 API Tut

If you use Visual c++ 6, its easy because if you use the MFC application(exe) it as a pallete so you can drag and drop controls. in VC++ 2008 use windows form application it has drop controls also.
