Visual C++ 2000 and Visual Studio 2005

What is the difference between Visual C++ 2005 and Visual Studio 2005. How can I instantiate a MFC wizard in order to create an application inside visual C++ 2005, if the MFC libraries are not accessible from ordinary Visual C++ 2005 Express installation

  • Passerelle

    VC++ 2005 is part of Visual Studio 2005. VS2005 larger editions include other languages as well such as C#,VB, and other features.

    To use MFC you need to install a higher edition of Visual Studio that any of the express editions.

    Take a look at http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hs24szh9.aspx for more details.
