I think you know console applications already...
You can search the internet for some tutorials...

so whats the first thing i need to learn in win32 app

Start with a hello world message box?

Code:

---

#include <windows.h>

int WINAPI WinMain(HINSTANCE hInstance, HINSTANCE hPrevInstance, LPSTR lpCmdLine, int nShowCmd)
{
        MessageBox(NULL, "Hello World!", "Message Box", MB_OK);

        return 0;
}

That's a good idea, you can also learn what a message loops is, and what is a window class, etc...
And as I told you in my post above, search the internet for some tutorials.
