Hello!

I'm using VC++ 7.1 and MFC.

In a header file that is located in a different directory that the main
project I include a header file that is located in the main project
directory. The project is called SCLaser.

When I right-click on the #include "SCLaserDoc.h" and select Open Document
SCLaserDoc.h, it can't find the file and lists all the directories that I
have defined as build directories. See below.

The first of those directories is the main project directory where the
SCLaserDoc.h is located!

Why and how do I fix this??

Where are you creating this font?. Are you assigning this font to the current Device context for the window. Ideally the font should be created in a message like OnDraw() and the font will be selected by making a call to SelectObject() of the device context that was passed to the function.

Go to regedit and input your include directory in the following place:

M
Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\7.0\VC\VC_OBJECTS_PLATFORM_INFO\Win32\Directories\Includ
Dirs

Cheers,
