NET Framework, and using VB.NET. The Code::Blocks IDE: it generated complete working code for a Windows API level GUI program that presents a resizable window. It's very Microsoft-style C-language level code, but it works: If you don't get a Solution Explorer pane at Try to remove the ✓ tick mark in [Tools → Settings → Basic Settings]. A programmer can put together an application using the components provided with Visual Basic itself. The value of Visual Basic is that it greatly simplifies Windows programming. But as it turned out, Visual C++ Express handled this request much like e.g. If the ✓ tick mark disappeared, then presumably all is well and you now have full menus. The Win32 API-to-Framework Class Library Namespace Cross-Reference is intended to provide readers who are familiar. It has over 800 functions, some of which can perform a wide variety of tasks. Programs written in Visual Basic can also use the Windows API, but doing so requires external function declarations. See http://www.ifax.com/products/hylafsp/faq.html for a VB Script example of controlling HylaFSP. The Windows API is enormously complex. Developers can use the Windows Fax Service API to connect to a HylaFAX server. Apex programming is the new Visual Basic. Because VB put an abstraction layer over the Windows API that was infinitely easier to use than coding to the native API or other available frameworks such as MFC or ATL.
