5 sec, I tried to use VC to do it but I don't know where I can paste
the code in.(Becase I haven't use MFC before) The program is no
action(I don't know where is the main()), it is just for Sleep(5000),
so where can I paste the code there? any how to add image into Dialog?

To add image to a dialog, you can insert a picture control in it (which is
CStatic) and associate the image to this control in resource editor. At run
time, start a timer for 5 sec. In timer's callback, you can simply hide this
CStatic.

Are you by any chance talking about splash screen?

As I had mentioned earlier, set a timer for 5 sec and then hide/destroy
the splash screen and execute your batch file. Typically splash screen
that you are using already has some timer feature in it. All you will
need to do is set it to 5 secs.

Hi,

I have previous coding experience, but not in the windows environment and 
not in C/C++.

I have just got a copy of MS Visual C++ Express and want to learn how to 
code C++ for Windows.  As I understand it I need to use MFC for the windows 
stuff, and without it Visual C++ would just be command prompt based?  Is 
that correct?

If so then I need a book that teaches me MFC and C++, preferably in the 
Visual C++ environment... Which is the best book/books for this?

Thanks.
