short) 3 different libraries, and (under VS.NET) you can choose which one you like best. MFC and ATL are C++ only, .NET stuff is for every (.NET) language

b) longer) Some history might clear things up.
MFC is the Microsofts "classic" UI class library forC++ on Windows. It's been the "pioneer lib" for functionality that got into the OS for some time, but it's power is fading.

ATL was developed (when MFC was still strong) as a lightweight and "less-functionality" library to develop ActiveX controls suitable for distribution over the internet (where distributing the MFC runtime DLL's is nigh impossible). Security concerns have made this road less desired, but together with the WTL (an "half-official" extension to ATL), it is a good class library.

c) .NET Common Controls is .NET only, can be adressed by all .NET languages, and is used by C# (unless you force it to do otherwise).

d) all three are implementred on top of the Win32 API, so they share functionality.
