C text

RoughitforGreen247

I'm trying to write win32 api on MS Visual C++ Express edition. I'm having a problem that isnt related to the code itself, I think. When I place text as title bar of my program, it is only displayed as boxes that signify unidentified characters. I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem. Is there a library I need to install, or am I not calling an #include correctly?

In the errors log, it gives me a list of .dll files, and after every one it says: "No symbols loaded". I can't figure out how to fix this. Help would be greatly appreciated.

solution is simple:
use another IDE (code::blocks, dev-c++ and so on)

You haven't given nearly enough information to even begin to know what the problem might be.

I can make a couple of blind guesses:
- You haven't set the title text at all.
- You set the title text incorrectly - for example a pointer to random data.
- You might be mixing up a Unicode API call with ASCII text data or vice versa.
- The font you have set for displaying title bar text is buggered.
