All right, so Petzold's book is (one of) the best.  But I still would not
attempt any sort of serious Windows programming without the two-volume
SDK reference and the Guide to Programming.  Petzold does not cover
everything (such as multiple-selection listboxes), and it's certainly no
reference manual.

Of course, all of the above are available separately for Borland C++ owners.
