Thanks for all the help and suggestions, but I have run into a road block for right now. I downloaded and installed the SDK 7.1 level on my XP system - the SDK for Windows 8 does not support XP. When I execute the SetEnv.cmd file, it does not find any C compiler nor the link executable. I then tried to get my .rc file to work with ResEdit, but there is a problem with the DateTimePicker in that I can define the attribute of ShortDateCenturyFormat with it, but then it will not reload the .rc file - it flags that identifier as being undeclared. I am about to try to install the Visual C++ 2010 Express version - the 2012 version also does not support XP. Is there a better solution that you are aware of? Thanks, Art
