Can you advice me in a good amateur and professional tutorials in VC++ DirectDraw??? Please Help!

nexe.gamedev.net

Isn''t Nexe a D3D site and not a direct draw site? Or am I mistaken? Are they one and the same or different? I was under the impression they were 2 different things. Direct draw being 2d only and direct 3d being both 2d and 3d.

here is one tut page for direct draw:
