Hi, I have installed VS2003 and have been wroting some c++ code. Mainly
created a win32 console application for my c++ program. I have a few
questions:
1. Is there a menu to compile/build/execute that I can put in the menu bar

Can I access the managed code from VC6 Application via COM Interop?
If it is, where can I find guildline about it?
Thanks in advance!

I want to use a managed c++ class from an unmanaged class.  Here is my
code:
// *** Unmanaged Code
// .h file

I am new to the visual c++ 2005 Beta series (compiler), and I tried to run a
program with the header files <iostream.h>, <stdlib.h>,etc.. I got a lot of
error messages regarding these header files, and also it failed to recognize
the I/O symbols << and >>.

I am currently developing a model (numerical computation) for a project. I
have this problem with some of the results I get from the output. The output
sometimes display this value -1.#IND for the values for some of the
variables. Does anyone know what might be responsible for ...

I'm trying to compile the following code with VC++ 2003.net. ( The real code
is a bit different, but I made a small example that does not make sense, but
it shows the problem )
The code compiles ok with the gnu 3.2.3 compiler and seems to be standard

I've a lot of buttons named button1..button100 and want to change some of there propertys.
Maintaining the overview I'm looking for a possibility for something like:
System::Windows::Forms::Button * Wolfgang;
for (i=1;i<100;i++)

void f(unsigned int) {}
void f(unsigned long) {}
int main()
{

int main()
{
 size_t t;
 return 0;

Is there any reason why you shouldn't use CreateWindow in a DLL?
I've got an application that calls a function in a custom DLL from its
wndproc. In the DLL, I am creating a window using CreateWindow with
WS_POPUPWINDOW | WS_CAPTION | WS_CHILD, and displaying it modally (i.e.

hope anybody can shed any light on the following.
I am trying to create a treeview within an MDI application.
I have initted common controls ex, and all messages are correct, I believe.
What I am evenaully trying to achieve is sort of Query Analyzer-style UI,

I have a form defined that when compiling has started giving me an error
message I can't make any sense of...
FormFind.h(24): error C3830: 'System::IntPtr': value types can only inherit
from a __gc interface

Good Day!
I tried the exercise at the following website with no problems when not
using the debug option.

I am having an issue with a window I am creating - in its wndproc, if I call
PostMessage(hWnd, WM_QUIT, 0, 0) in response to WM_DESTROY, then GetMessage
returns a non-zero value and the loop carries on. But if I post quit message
in response to WM_CLOSE - it works fine!

Would it be fair to say the following is an optimizer bug?
--- Test.cpp ---
#include <cstdio>
using std::printf;
