The Lunatic

I understand that Free Pascal is win32 capable.

Is it hard to code graphical app's for windows?
Anyone got any sources of information on how to code this way?

I understand that Free Pascal is win32 capable. Is it hard to code graphical app's for windows?

No. But 'different'.

Anyone got any sources of information on how to code this way?

Check the single sample source code in the examples dir for a start. You can try to find WWW sites explaining Win16 GUI programming for BP7 - it's not much different to FPC.

Get the MS Platform SDK help from http://msdn.microsoft.com/ Or on the Borland FTP site you can get a not so up-to-date but smaller help file.
