Visual Studio .NET, Visual C++ 6.0 and Dev-C++ all do what you want. .NET is great if you have the money, if not, I recommend using Dev-C++ (which is free).

Err, you might be best of sticking with VB then. Visual C++ uses either Win32API or MFC and is very confusing when you have previously done something like Delphi or VB. It does have a kinda visual form designer, but there is a lot more coding required as far as I know. (I have always given up and gone back to delphi) I use Visual C++ for developing with DirectX so I don''t need all those properties and things.

Wrong. You can use the .NET framework with C++ and the VS.NET IDE.

It depends on your budget. If you have the money, get Microsoft Visual C++ .NET Standard 2003. If you want the professional version, you can probably find it on ebay. Another choice is Borland Enterprise C++. You can download a trial from the Borland site. Borland also offers a free version of their compiler, with no IDE. Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 is very hard to find, but if you find it, it should be cheaper than any of the other compilers you need to pay for. I am currently using it on one computer, and it is very good. If you don''t have any money, you can try djgpp, a Windows version of gcc. Get it at DJ Delorie''s Site. Or, you can try Dev-C++. It is a very nice IDE based off of mingW. I use it, and it is very nice. Plus, the e-mail user group is very friendly and helpful. Get it at Bloodshed.net.

Mingw :D because it''s free, open source, GNU based, and has a cool SDK called "Dev-C++" :D

Visual C++ .NET 03 standard is very nice. So is Dev-C++, but I never did get the new version of mingw to compile my DirectX code (that compiled fine on the previous version).
You need to have the Dev-Pack for it to compile in Dev-C++. I have it, but haven''t tried it yet.
