GUI canbe created in C as well but it is annoying. As ur friend is comfortable with C, ask him to do C#.net

If he knws C, then tell him to do VC. GUI Apps in VC are very easy.

Alternatively, you can try Tcl/Tk for a cross-platform compatible solution

Even I wanted to know that........

Is Visual C++ the only way? I don't want to buy Visual Studio ... Isn't there a freeware alternative???

Ok. I have Bloodshed Dev C++. The only difference in Dev C++ and TC is that Dev C++ has the MingW compiler and follows latest ANSI/ISO standards. How do I make GUI programs with a development environment???
