I'm having alot of difficulties just trying to compile the source code for a program I some what understand. I'm working with MeVC++ and the Pocket PC remote source code form The Code Project(http://www.codeproject.com/ce/tvremote.asp) I'm mostly getting errors because a file thats required isn't included. The software is suposedly designed using Visual Studio, but I don't have the money to get the software so is there a SDK to download or some way to get this thing working.

What am I missing in this situation. It seems I don't understand some things about compiling files.

Check the web page to see if the author has used any seperate library that doesn't come with the usual compiler package ???
I t will be useful if you post the names of those files in the error message ???

Right when I open the workspace I get an error messeage saying "cannot open file afexres.h". I know I probably have to add some windows componets, but I don't know how or where to stay. I guess I just have to figure out how the hell this program works and what this and that file do. Any help would be appreciated.
