hello, I used to type my programs on console application.by C language and use
these libraries , <stdio.h>,<conio.h>,<stdlib.h> .etc and used these function (printf),(scanf) under <stdio.h> library.. but then I wanted to know how they make programs on windows application by C language . I figure out they used another libraries .. like <windows.h>.and the functions that used under this library is different from which I used to make my program on it.so my qusetion is that :I need to know how many the libraries under C language until this day.. ? is there any location to know that.. ? and how I can run my programs that I made it on dos make run on windows .. what should I do..?

It sounds like you just want to focus on Win32 for now. You can start here, but eventually you'll be checking MSDN regularly.

Note that GUI programming is not easy as there's quite a learning curve when coming from console applications.

There are thousands upon thousands of C libraries. And no, there's no centralized location.

<windows.h> is from the Win32 API.

No, windows.h is definitely not part of the c/c++ standard.

You're using the C language to access the Win32 API through a C interface (the header and library).

It just means you can use C language to build gui MS-Windows programs. You can also use other languages, such as C#, VB, php, C++, and others. The win32 api functions were made by Microsoft to be called by as many different programming languages as possible. windows.h is just a header file used within C and C++ language.
Don't PM me with questions -- you might get a nasty PM in response. If you have a question then post it in one of the forums.
