0 bithub Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 Programming Windows 5th Edition by Charles Petzold Best book by far on programming windows. I bought this book back when the second edition first came out, and I never had to buy another windows programming book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
