.NET Forum / Visual Studio.NET / General / February 2008Visual Studio 2008... Can't use ANY of the DirectX sample code?
*sigh* What do I need to do to get the DirectX9 sample code, found in the DX SDK, to work with Visual Studio 2008?

Windows SDK v6.0a and DirectX SDK (Nov 2007) both installed. I appreciate the help. I just wish this didn't need to be so complicated. I remember (and miss) the days of QBasic 4.0 compiling to machine code. I never had nearly this much trouble coding 6809 assember on my old TRS-80.

Now it's "CVT1100: duplicate resource" and >"LNK1123: failure during conversion to COFF" What is the *exact* order in which you've got the include and library search paths? It should be: DirectX SDK first, Windows SDK second, Visual Studio third.
