Hi,

I am trying to work in project which was developed in 2000, in VC++, when I try to build the project in VS2008, I get multiple error related to directx, i added path to directx through tools-> project and options-> VC++ directories, adding path to directx.

Stil I get numerous errors related to WINSDK and directx.

I am new to VC++, can any help me, how to run the project in VS2008. Windows 7, which has got directx 11 version, where as the project was referenced to directx9. It keeps on saying for invalid directory path, and adding the files manually by downloading doesn't solve the problem.

Error: 108 fatal error C1083: Cannot open source file: '.\dsutil.cpp': No such file or directory c1xx

Please can any one help in getting back in rails.

With Regards
Muralekarthick

Try adding the first one or two error messages that you see to your question, in that way people may have at least some idea of what your problem is.

Which part of this message do you have a problem with? You have the expected path, the name of the file and the fact that it is not where the compiler expects it. Take a look at your project and make sure all the files are where they are supposed to be.
