Good Visual Studio C++ Tutorial
I'm trying to figure out Visual Studio C++. I know pretty much how to navigate through the interface of it, what I want to learn about is ways use it. Namely Windows Forms, There's a bunch of videos on the Microsoft website, but they are not grouped at all and are on more advanced things than I don't know yet. (It didn't seem like any of them were about Windows Forms at all as well).
Anyway, a step by step tutorial with examples would be amazing.
PS, sorry if there is a good one that I should have found but google keeps turning up nothing that seems relevant.

IF you're willing to pay money, and are fairly new to C++, I'd recommend "Learn Visual C++" By Ivor Horton, Published by Wrox.
He's an incredibly man, he gives the best lessons on C++ I have ever seen.
If you look at the Amazon.com Used and New section, you can get some pretty decent books on Windows Programming for fairly cheap. I have (quite literally) 17 programming books, and none of them (with shipping included in this figure) have cost me more than 8 dollars.
Here is an example of the used and new page

This is for a fairly old version of visual studio. Obviously, newer books tend to cost more than the older ones, but Visual C++ hasn't really changed much since VS6, except the .NET platform, which I don't use anyway
I would check it out, you can get a lot of good books fairly cheaply on it.
