ok.. few points..

You should add all the header files from the project, not just the adelay.h

You should add all the cpp files to the "source" folder, not "resources", resources is for things like icons.

Ok, next thing is you can pretty much copy and paste any error message into google and find the information you need to fix it.

Regarding _CRT_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS

You either need

#define _CRT_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS

somewhere, in the main header file, or you set you can set it in the project settings. It's in preprocessor section, you can set predefined symbols in ther somewhere.

Lastly... why not just open the visual studio project file thats included with the SDK?

Dont know tbh, the "default int" error usualy means you forgot to include a header and you've tried to create a type that isnt defined. But as its getting these errors in vs\inlude\string.h i dont know what could be causing it.

I'd try asking over the the microsoft newsgroups / user forums.

cant remember the newsgroup address tbh.

The first error is "missing ';' before 'constant'" which suggests (since this is coming from a standard header) that there's some malformed syntax or accidental characters before the include.
