How to use Labview 7.0 to make program interface?

Question

Hellow!
Will Labview 7.0 be able to make the program interface? just like some application software made by VC++,VB?
The program interface should have the menu,button,...

You can use LV to create a fully working program with an interface of your design, just like you would in any other compiler. LV actually serves as a compiler for a graphical language called G, which is based on dataflow instead of text based execution (the data "flows" through wires from one function to the next, controlling execution order and filling the role of variables).
Since LV is multiplatform (and not MS), its default controls are not identical to those in VC and VB, but those can be accessed to. Actually, in many ways, it's much easier to build an interface in LV, because building the interface actually defines your "variables" and your interaction with the code.
An interface would be no good without a program, so you will have to know how to use LV. It's much faster to learn than other languages, but you will still need some experience to write good programs.
To learn more, I suggest you start by reading the LabVIEW user manual. Also, try searching this site and google for LabVIEW tutorials. Here and here are a couple you can start with. You can also contact your local NI office and join one of their courses.
In addition, I suggest you read the LabVIEW style guide.
If your question was only about MS buttons, like in VB and VC, you can find them in the Dialog Controls palette, or you can use ActiveX to embed them into your program.
