[comp.sys.ibm.pc] MS-Windows

lawitzke@msudoc.UUCP (John Lawitzke) (05/02/87)

Please respond via e-mail as I don't regularly read every article in
this newgroup.

I have been working some with MS-Windows and have a few questions:

1) Is there a developers version available to enable you to write
   Windows applications to use dialog windows, pop-up menus, etc?

2) If so, how much is it and do I have to get it from MS?

3) Is it possible for a MS-Windows application to use more than 
   one window? (ie two text windows, or a textwindow and a graphics
   window, or three text windows, etc.)

4) Have the program internally control the size of windows it creates?


Thanx in advance.

I have a question which I'm posting for a friend.  The details are
rather nebulous, but I promised to do so anyway.

Apparantly, while starting up a windows application, a message is
flashed on the screen.  Something like "fatal error code = 0xff".
Afterwards, he's dumped out of the windows environment altogether.

About the only thing I know is that he has a Zenith AT compatable.
Anyway, if this sounds familier to anyone, please drop me a note.


Thanks much,
Jon
