  Do you know what it is supposed to say instead and how I change it.
  
  

• Erik Castañeda

  all I did was follow step 3
  
  in the derectory settings I clicked add line and copy and pasted them to the library ,executable, and include.
  
  should I just uninstall all of it and redo it all
  
  I am thinking this might help.

  the search says it is here C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8
  
  where is it supposed to be
  
  

• Fonzy

  Where is 'excpt.h' on your machine Were you able to include non PSDK files like <stdio.h>

  It looks like you removed some of the original include directories. You needed to add the PSDK include directory and not to remove anything.

  How did you change such directory settings originally

  It looks like you have a problem in your include. From your first message, see the following wanring:

  Project : warning PRJ0018 : The following environment variables were not found:
  $(ProgramFiles\Microsoft Platform SDK\Include;$(VCInstallDir)
  Build log was saved at file://c:\Documents and Settings\Owner\My Documents\Visual Studio 2005\Projects\zane\zane\Debug\BuildLog.htm
  

  The red part doesn't look correct.

  Check out step 3 at http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/visualc/usingpsdk/

  You don't need to use the $( but rather just enter the full path to your PSDK include.

  You have something wrong. The file should be at Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\include\excpt.h. That is why the project is probably not finding it.

  I would recommend you reinstall the application and follow the steps at http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/visualc/usingpsdk/ from scratch.

  Make sure you have the following in the include directory:

  $(VCInstallDir)include

  $(VCInstallDir)atlmfc\include

  Do a quick search of your system... do you have a copy of excpt.h
