two things:

1) In visual c++ express, you have the ability to place a web browser window into an application. As DarkGDK is using this software, it must be possible to display a small web browser window within the game. does anyone know how to achieve this or any other things that c++ would normally allow you to do?

2) If I made a normal win32 application, then in another form can I put the usual DarkGDK into that?

I can't answer your first question, but with regards to the second there are some DGDK functions that work outside of a DarkGDK game and some that don't.

I can use some like dbWait just fine, but using any of key scanning functions (among others) causes the application to crash.

This will only work when you are using Managed C++ (.NET Framework)

DarkGDK is unmanaged c++. This can only be achieved by using the windows api or buying visual studio and using the MFC classes
