Had to add C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\v7.1a\(lib, include, bin) to the vcxproj file

Is there a better way? I had to add all of these paths to the relevant include, lib, bin path for the project, to pick up files like rc.exe, winmm.lib, and shlobj.h.

If you don't have this path in your vcxproj, how did you include those files in your project?

I think they are Visual Studio project default options which is inherited by any project unless told otherwise.

Ah, had to follow the instructions here: http://www.curlybrace.com/words/2012/12/17/setting-global-c-include-paths-in-visual-studio-2012-and-2011-and-2010/
