Is there a way to have a textbox with DarkGDK instead of using traditional C++ coding (like a function or something). We want a textbox as part of a login sequence where the client input's his/her username.

Also, would traditional C++ coding work with Dark GDK (like cin<< and cout>>?

Thanks

c++way may be quicker and easy to find something all ready done, to do it DGK make something around char* dbEntry$ ( void ) .

Just use Win32 API or something if you're using C++ >.>

Doesn't VC++ have a Visual Form Builder like the other Vxyz stuffs in Visual Studio?

HowDo and n008 are completely right - C++ would be quicker, and you'd be more likely to find something.

It should do - on the start page of VC++, find the Code 4 Fun link and click on it. It has a large index of GUI applications, and I'm sure one or two of them would apply to you.

Failing that, search online for C++ GUI tutorials, and I'm sure you'll find something like you need =)

p.s. dark GDK is basically like an additional library all of it's own - C++ just compiles it, so, you should be able to implement non-related libraries into it and build them into your .exe

btw, if you've gotten to the login phase of the game, have you managed to find a way to get around the problems arising from the release builds using dark GDK?
