Can't find MFC lib files for 32-bit apps in new PSDK.

I recently downloaded and installed the Windows Server SP1 Platform SDK. I notice that there are MFC include files and lib files in the installation. However, I can't find any lib files for 32-bit applications. As I understand it the library files in the .\Lib\AMD64\atlmfc\ and .\Lib\IA64\mfc\ directories are for development of 64-bit applications. So which libraries should I use when building a 32-bit MFC application

Thanks in advance,
Roger

    Thats correct! This is a lack on this page!

    Neither ATL nor MFC is part of the express version!

    The 32bit MFC was never part of the Platform SDK, only the 64bit version is/was.
    You need a full VS product to get MFC 32bit!

    Hmm, that wasn't mentioned at:

    Edit:
    Here is a more accurate table that includes the MFC and ATL exclusions:
