k, C++, i need a window with a picture on it, when it gets clicked it dissapears and the rest of the program runs.
i would, if possible like some starter coe for both. thx

It looks to me like what you're asking for is a tutorial on basic graphical user interface programming. http://www.winprog.org/tutorial if you don't care about portability; otherwise, http://www.wxwindows.org/ or http://www.gtk.org/

thanks

ok, how do i paint a picture onto a window with out having the picture(bmp) around? i mean have the bmp imbedded into the program. thx

I believe the normal way to do that is to have a program that takes your bitmap and turns it into a header file that defines a variable that holds the contents of the bitmap. Then, you include the header and use the variable. It's also possible in some (all?) executable formats to put the bitmap data in the executable file, at the end of the file. Then you open the file, fseek() (or equivalent) to that part of your executable, and read the bitmap data.

in Win32 you can use resources. Consult you IDE on how to add resources to you .exe's.

then just call
LoadBitmap( NULL, MAKEINTRESOURCE( <id> ) );
where <id> is the resource id of the bitmap

ah k, thx
