can anyone help me?its urgent
Look, you are asking someone to teach you how to make a full windows program without you ever having learned anything about C++ programming and the Windows API. It's just not going to happen.

i am a c++ programmer,but am new to win32 apis, hence need some help. if you are good in win32, why don't you share your ideas?
Creating a GUI is a science. You need to ask more specific questions.
The basics of creating a GUI depends on what library you want to use. For example, there is pure Win32, there is MFC and wxWidgets, etc.
For pure win32, create a Windows application (not windows form). Then you can go to the resource view, and add a dialog. In there, you can add controls to the form. But that's it for the graphical. Then you need to do it, and that's where the problems begin.

1)how to program group radio button using win32 apis?which are the event handlers to be called?any samples are available?
2)how to create a button and load image to it using win32 api?
3)how to create a list control and add columns to it as shown in the image using win32 apis?
4)
4) how do i create a combo box and check box as shown in images using win32 c++ apis?what are the events being handled?
There is something called the edit button. Use it.
I will answer your questions but that will not help you too much...
1. You can use MSVCs resource editor to create radio buttons on a dialog or create them on the fly using CreateWindow(). Respond to BN_CLICKED msgs in the dialogs callback. Plenty of samples here and on MSDN.
2. Use the resource editor or CreateWindow(). MFC has a class called CBitmapButton. Otherwise, depending on the image you want on the button, you will have to give the button the owener draw style and handle WM_DRAWITEM msgs for it (and GDI creating and clean up).
3. Use the resource editor or CreateWindow(). Add the LVS_REPORT style. You will need to insert the columns and rows on the fly.
4. Use the resource editor or CreateWindow(). You will have to add the items on the fly and if required allow the user to add items. Combos need to use at least the CBN_SELCHANGE mgs.
What is the target XPe, CE or another MS OS? [I use MFC on all these.]
You can use static linking (build time) of the MFC DLLs to your app (rather than the default dynamic linking (runtime)). This will allow it to be used on any machine running WIN32.
MFC is much easier to create a stable app than pure WIN32.
What you want done is somewhat complex requiring GDI, including double buffering, mem DCs and modifing the raw image data. It will not be an easy project for a novice.

Target in Win XP Pro. I understand by using MFC we can easily create, but i need to use WIN32 API only, since target device doesnt support MFC. It will be of great help if you could give me some WIN32 C++ code snippets for edit button, combo box,radio button,list control,push button etc.
what is the win32 c++ api to create checkbox?also how can i do group radio button programming in win32 c++??any source code would be helpful to understand the apis.
