I'm learning to program C++ in Windows. I would like to have the user enter float
variables into a program. In writing console programs this is extremely simple using "cin>>" or "sscanf". When writing a windows application, these techniques cant be
used. Is there a Win32 API function that handles this? How, can the user enter simple
float numbers so that they can be used by a windows application? I would greatly appreciate this info, since its been kind of a roadblock.

Thank You
