Do you have the DX SDK installed? Do you have your compiler set up to include the DX stuff at compile time?
Yes. No idea how.

I'm trying to make commercially saleable games and scripting Languages are too slow. And I only own two commercial compilers, <a href="www.thegamecreators.com" target="_blank">DarkBASICPro</a> and MS VS C++ 6.0
I don't have a copy of Visual Studio 6 (I use 2003), but here are some general guidelines on how to include the DX include files and things.
In Visual Studio, find the include directory options for C++ projects (For me, it was under Tools -> Options, and then select Projects -> VC++ Directories). Make sure to have the path for the DXSDK\include directory there. Same thing for lib(rary) files for DX, include the DXSDK\lib directory in the VC++ lib files option.

Its been a while since I seriously used MSVC++ 6, so things are probably different.
