    Question C project in Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Express?

    Can I create a regular C project in Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Express? If so how?

    Yes. Just create a C++ solution. In the project configuration, go to C/C++ -> Advanced -> Compile As. Set to compile as C. You might also change the extension of .cpp files to .c.

"Finding the smallest program that demonstrates the error" is a powerful debugging tool.
