Why do you want to do this? Just simple masochism? Why don't you want to use Swing on the client? I think Swing UIs often look better than VC UIs and that would also allow you to easily support other client platforms. Even if you want to support a few of the Windows-specific features, like using the task tray, you handle those with JNI calls (after a platform check).
In any case, you can use XML to pass data from the Java server to the VC client; you might want to look into SOAP or CORBA for something like this, also; I'm not sure what facilities VC++ has these days as far as CORBA goes, but you might need some COM-to-CORBA library. If you are using C#/.Net on the client, that might make it easier.
