Hi,
For learning MFC, MSDN is more than adequate.

i have read that too but couldn't find that how we relate our dry game with App Wizard (exe) project

Your last statement is not really clear, do you already have the game written? Are you trying to add a graphical interface to it? If that is the case what interface have you created onto your game code.

Unless MFC has been stipulated by your professor you might be better off using .NET which is the current method of creating graphical windows programs rather than MFC which is rather out of date now.

actually i am using vc++ 6 and i have just written the code with couts in c++ source file
then created the board, snakes and ladders using ondraw() function but not getting how to put the code in CGfApp class and call the ondraw( ) and run the game...
im sorry if im confusing actually im a beginner.

@bitbyte89
Then you are going to have to go back and redesign your game code a little.

If you want to be able to attach an interface to your game code the game code needs to have no interface code in it to start with but return information to the interface in use via function calls.

Since you currently have couts in your game code it is not separate from the interface.

This is actually quite an important lesson, keep functionality and user interface separate, that way if you need to change the interface the code with the program functionality should remain unchanged.
