Visuals

Hi,I've been working on a simple program lately and I want to make it look better , I want to look like it's a program instead of console application , what tool I should use ? Microsoft Visual c++ ? Maybe something else?
Visual Studios is great for this kind of work. You can create a Windows Form project that looks and works just like your average program. This type of programming is a bit more difficult but fairly intuitive.
Ok , I just started doing , now I'm creating a design and I have a question:
What I should use for inputs and outputs?What tool from toolbox?
EDIT:
I mean an input that I write in a number and output gives another number , with some calculations , after I press the button.

One control you could use is the Text box or else the Numeric up down box.
Textboxes for input. I've always used msgboxes to display short output, since I'm too lazy to put it in a label or something.
Can somebody please tell me , how to make this program count ,
ok here is the situation:
I have a source code for console application , console app has a menu of 12 selections , I made those selections in visual c++ as radiobuttons , I puted in input and output , after I write into input a number and selecting one of the things and pressing a button I want to get an output , can somebody guide me through it?
You now need to add an event handler for the control. To do this you go to your form designer and open up its properties. Theres a button at the top of the properties that looks like a lighting bolt, click it. This will bring up the events available for the current control. Double click the event that relates to what you want to do and then add the necessary code on the new method that it brings up.
