A few Windows Problems

when makeing a win32 app in C++, What do i use for user input in the dialog editor ? Edit control ?
Im very new to this, I have looked in the help files But they are still a bit confusing to me, could someone direct me to a simple tutorail on windows programming or help me here maybe ?
I have a basic window that I let C++ build for me, It only has File>Exit and Help>about on the menu bar.
I want to add another item on the menu bar "Start" when clicked I want it to open another window with 8 user input boxs and 4 output boxs that simply add up the 2 preceding input boxs when the user presses Calculate.

But I don't know how:

1) To create a new window to house my input,output boxes and the button.
2) To set the value of the output boxes when the button is clicked.
3) To get User input.

Im crossing over from console programming to windows programming, And have many questions, So forgive me if im a bother to you guys .

You should read at least this and everything before it might be handy too.
