I was kinda surprised to see that someone downloaded code for a MFC article I wrote in 2005 (blinking cells in Chris Maunder's grid control). Are people really still coding in C++/MVC?

MVC or MFC? The latter is still being shipped with Visual Studio, so I assume there are still some MFC coders around

Yeah, I meant MFC. I fixed it. :/

You should fix it also in the post itself 
Yes, I'm still using C++ and MFC. For platform independent C++ GUI applications I'm using Qt.

Yep, doing most of our work in C++ and MFC.
I'd like to switch to C# and some fancy UI toolkit, but the cost would be too great for no real advantages (at least right now).
I'd rather be phishing!

You are not alone. I'm still maintaining a couple of VB6 applications (and around 80 or so add-on modules/utilities) that have been in use since 2K.
Migration to .NET is an ongoing project starting with the smaller add-ons and tackling the main applications last. I figure I've got a few years at least before MS stops shipping the VB6 runtimes, then probably another couple more before my customers start adopting Windows XII...that will be about the time to retire! 
btw, I was the first hire in my company in 18 years ago and I've been the only programmer here (besides a couple of college students that really didn't contribute much) for the last 16 years so practically all of the old code is mine...at least I can understand it.

I switched to Qt in 2008 (mainly because of cross platform development). Although I do wish some of the stuff I had in MFC was available in Qt. At this point I probably have written an equal amount of code in both.

There was a time, I thought my career would be just about Win32 MFC, COM/ATL.
This got irrelevant, 5 years ago.

Was COM ever relevant?
I still use MFC for writing test apps, for control panel applets, to go with my drivers, that kind of crap. It is ideal really, so easy to use, so quick to throw together UIs.
What do you use these days? Perhaps I should switch over to it.

It was a waste of time as far as I could see, it certainly didnt fix dll hell, it just created COM hell.
