Who told you that Microsoft "retired" MFC? To paraphrase Mark Twain, this talk of MFC demise is greatly exaggerated. They might not be not pushing it the way they're pushing their .NET stuff, but it's certainly still there. MFC is part of Visual C++ 2005, both the libraries and the wizards in the IDE. In fact, they released a new version of it with additional features [http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms235433.aspx]. The breaking changes are very minimal [http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms244941.aspx], so it ought to be possible to port an existing MFC app with little or no difficulty.
The only problem is, that mfc is not included in the express edition... If I use the includes and mfc42d.lib from Visual C++ 6, it compiles (after some changes), but produces an error on start (before reaching my source code).
