Can anybody recommend anything informative?

I've been trying to learn c++ for a C-HOOK i would like to write. I've been reading quite a few books describing variables,functions,arrays soo on and soo on. I havn't found anything describing what belongs where. I see several different file types when using MS visual c++ (.H .CPP .RC) and several others. I know .H is header and .CPP are the program but i have a dialog also so there are files for that too. I'm just not sure what code belongs where. Is there any books that describe formatting good code? The dialog and how the program will flow has all been thought over, it's time to put it all together.

You might want to start with the C-Hook Wizard. It will generate the necessary skeleton files to use for a sample C-Hook. The wizard is part of the SDK.

You also might look into taking a beginning c/c++ programming class at a local community college. Community college's are pretty cheep and have night classes.

 

It'll get you over the initial 'hump' of learning the language.

 

Also, if you're lucky and it's job related, you can talk the boss into paying for it.
