    I'm working on a project in Visual C++ Express edition, as I'm too broke to buy a proper edition. However, Express does not come with the include files for the Microsoft Foundation Classes, which I need to build my project. I've tried using the files that come with Visual C++ 6.0 but they are causing errors. Anyone know how I can get around this problem?

    As far as I know the express editions came with the source of MFC and ATL, but did not contain any binary builds of them. I think they did supply make files, and it may be possible to build them.

    Would you not be better to buy a standard edition of VC++, you'd definitely pick up one for under €100.
