Although I normally like to put plenty of code samples in my programming articles, this one is going to be a little different. Instead of walking you through code, I want to show you several screen shots in the form of a slide show that will introduce you to the new MFC Wizard in Visual Studio 2008. This will result in a default MFC app that doesn’t do much yet. Then, in the next article I’ll take you through the code and show you what’s new, including some of the new C++09 features that are now available. Enjoy!

When you create a new MFC project, you see a brand new wizard. Here's the first page.
