    I wasn't discouraging anything. I told him the right things to do. If someone is not ready for Windows programming, they'll learn more by doing console programming.

    Now i want to ad things to my meny...
    How should i define it? Is there som speciall defining or can i just choose a number.
    In the main.c, if the user clicks at livijnproductions under help i want it to open a webpage and them to http://livijnproductions.se

    The code:
    main.c
    Code:
    				case ID_HELP_LIVIJN:
    					
    				break;
    app.rc
    Code:
            POPUP "&Help"
        BEGIN
            MENUITEM "&Livijnproductions",          ID_HELP_LIVIJN
    resource.h
    Code:
    #define ID_HELP_LIVIJN                  40018
    I have tested the code, and it works. Just that it don't send me to my page. That's all i need to know now.

    EDIT:
    I've also got ID_HELP_README and if the user press it, i want it to open a file...
    Like C://Program/Jinky/readme.txt

    It's a HUGE library, complicated to link, etc. You can use wxDev-C++ to do the linking for you, after which you only need to look at some basic tutorials and this class.

    PHP is harder that C++? PHP is kind of the easiest (web)language in the world...

    Not in the C++ language, nor in Win32. Both of these do not interact with the internet. WinSock is a lower level way to do the same thing.
