I am trying to learn VC.NET and convert some Borland C++ applications.  The
syntax differences are killing me...
Is there an easy way to convert a hex string, entered by the user, to a

I have an existing MFC program consisting of an EXE and one DLL that I am
trying to convert into a mixed mode program.  I am using Visual Studio.NET
2003 Professional and I am compiling in the IDE.  I set the "Use Managed

I am working on a Managed C++ project and I get the following error:
TestThread.cpp(3) : error C2859: c:\projects\ProjectName\debug\vc70.pdb
is not the pdb file that was used when this precompiled header was
created, recreate the precompiled header.

In unmanaged C++, I need to allocate an "array" of int values, put values
into the array, then call a function and pass it the address and length of
the array.  The length of the array is only known at run-time, so I assume
that my best course of action is to use a std::vector ...

I declared a templatized function in a .hpp file in Project_A.  If I insert
a reference to that function somewhere in Project_A, intellisense gives me
the function signature.
Now, in Project_B, I've included the path to Project_A's source files in the
