NeHe has some pretty good tuts for Windows. None of the tuts have multiple windows, although if you have a pretty good grasp on what''s going on it''s not that bad. There''s even some stuff on mouse, but I don''t think he touches sound.

The author you want is Charles Petzold. Do a search on Amazon to locate the title.

The titles are Programing Windows xx from Microsoft Press, where xx is the specific Windows version. There''s nothing better.

Thanks, I''ll look into all those.
I''ve learned with classes that you should look at C++ from more than one author''s point of view.
