Be prepared to figure out most of it on your own.
Before you even get started with this CD you need to have at least a basic understanding of Visual C++ and the application framework or you're doomed from the start. There is at least one error or omitted piece of information in each and every lesson which not only adds to the confusion of learning MFC programming but about two hours trying to figure out what is going on. This could have been a really great product if they would have just paid attention to detail and gave a little more of an explanation of what you're actually doing.

Outstanding for beginners who want to use windows and C++!!
There is a real absense of understandable information that allows the novice programmer to to use C++ and windows. Even college courses tend to avoid the transition. This CD and its booklet fills that void admirably! After only one class in C++, where the output only used DOS, I was able to study this CD and booklet and start using windows. Thank you Harry!
