I was wondering if someone could help me with a problem that i have, i dont know anything about Windows Programming but i do a bit of Console, and i dont think that TIc Tac Toe would be a good idea as a console game, would be a bit hard to do, so i was wondering, what all would i need to study up on inorder to make it a windows program ? OpenGL?....or is that for 3d graphics?...all posts are welcome,

Depending on how you want the game, you may want to check out SDL http://www.libsdl.org or MFC http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=mfc+tutorial&btnG=Google+Search

Book1
Deitel & Deitel: C++ How To Program
teaches you all you need to know about c++, but if you know about classes, virtual functions, linked lists, inheritance etc

then you just have to get this book:
Programming Windows 5th Ed by Charles Petzold

easy book on how to learn windowsprogramming, and the best part....it teaches you how to creat an tic tac toe program...and the worst part.... its hardly more than 2 - 3 pages long ( code length )

after that, directx, opengl and the world is at your feet....

Thank you both. I too have been looking for a good Win32 text, its nice to get some decent opinions on it.
