Hi,
I'm completely new to C++ and I bought the book Sams Teach Yourself Visual C++ 6 in 21 days and it says to open a new project and click on MFC AppWizard (exe) but it's not there :( I got Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 by the way.
Does anyone know how to solve this problem
Cheers,
Henry

What edition of visual studio do you have
BTW, you might face some difficulty in applying some of the examples in the book if they are VC60 specific.

VC++ 6 has many differences from what is in current release. MFC has always given me a headache, I never got it right.
Happily, .NET has changed much of that. I am very skeptical of learning anything in 21 days. One book I would recommend to learn C++ and .NET together is:
"Pro Visual C++/CLI and the .NET 2.0 Platform" by Stephen R. G. Fraser

Then take a look at http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/9es9d1k4(VS.80).aspx for creating MFC applications in VS2005.
As I mentioned, expect differences since such wizards have changed from one version to the other.
Hope this helps!
