Sure. The simplest way to do it is to use MFC with C++, but you can
write essentially the same program calling the original SDK functions
with C.
I'd be inclined to bite the bullet and go the C++/MFC route for your
main application setup and messaging loop. You can fall back to the
SDK here and there if you want, but in many cases MFC is basically a
thin wrapper that has exactly the same functions anyway. Its the
difference between calling:
myDC.SomeFunction() and SomeFunction( myHDC ).
