Can anyone show me how to include folders and libs in my projects in MSVC 2005?

Kind of newbish to it.

You need to:

Click Tools -> Options.
Expand Projects and Solutions.
Click VC++ Directories.
Use the top Righthand List to choose what type of directory you want to see (usually includes, libraries)

Use the icons below the list box to manage entries.

Ah thanks, got it working.
Can't say I'm a fan of it, but DX9 works with it whereas it doesn't with Dev-Cpp

Thanks

I've found VS 2005 the best IDE and Compiler I've ever used

I may not completely understand it yet but it is growing on me

One little thing that is bugging me about it right now though is that it only highlights the brackets (The beginning and ending) when you first make them, not everytime the cursor is placed on them like CodeBlocks does. I couldn't find a way to enable this anywhere.
