Need to make typical Win32 Application

I downloaded VC++ 2005 Express for look and what can I see... only framework supported applications or Win32 console. Is possible to write in this VC++ 2k5 Express typical win32 application without any frameworks

Someone told me that Win32 Console is much different then typical compiled Win32 cpp.

    I am not completely sure (I have the pro version after a 'lauch event'). But I remember that to use VC++ Express for unmanaged development you will need to download the Platform SDK ( Microsoft download). This will give you the option of writing unmanaged applications using only the SDK. Other frameworks (like MFC) are not available for the Express edition via Microsoft. I assume that if the WTL is downloadable you should be able to use this also, the compiler etc are AFAIK not cut down.

     

    Hope this helps.
