Try on Google. There should be tons out there. Maybe you'd just have strip some extra stuff off.

Well, it really depends on what you want this window to do. The most basic Windows program that creates a dialog box would just be something like this:

#include <windows.h>

int WINAPI WinMain(HINSTANCE hInst, HINSTANCE hPrev, PSTR szCmd, int iShow){

   MessageBox(NULL, "Hello, World!", "Simple Dialog", MB_OK);

}

If you want to do more complicated stuff, email/PM me and I can hook you up with some examples. Also, take a look at RoboGUI, which you can find at www.robbayer.com, as it contains a bunch of Windows code. If you're interseted in MFC, take a look at RoboEmu too.

If you are using MSC++ 6.0, the 'Dialog' resources are what you're looking for. Either that or do it all in code.
If your using .NET, haven't a clue.

Forget about old-fashioned C-style Windows apps... too hard to create/manage.

Use MFC C++ projects for MSC++6 or .NET.

If you're using .NET 2002, use MFC. If you're using .NET 2003, you can try SWF (System.Windows.Form), aka Managed Windows Forms to write C#-style code. Note that managed code will only run on the .NET Framework.
