well, I remember my first days trying to figure Vc++ out... I think part of the problem is you're coming from the php, javascript/actionscript world which is the "interpreted" language world into the C++ world, which is "compiled" code. The whole point of php and other scripting languages is to make it easy for people to generate snippets of code that accomplish certain tasks, limitted in capabilities and performance.

I found that starting out by trying to understand the win32 programming basics helps a lot when dealing with VC++. The thing is all MFC does is it makes Win32 programming a lot easier, but that is only true for those who either know their way around Win32 standard programming, or those who don't care to understand the underlying paradigms of win32 programming. You seem to be one of those who likes to understand the underlying principles before building on top of them, so I'd suggest starting with a Win32 Application project... the "Hello World" example, and don't include any MFC support in the beginning. Try to understand the concept of Window as base class for almost all other classes in the Win32 environment. Once you grasp the Window concept, how to create one, what is the message pump, what are messages, how to handle them.. then you can move on and start getting into the more advanced stuff.

Good luck!
