if you have several projects in VC(6.0) how do you import them all into one project and compile as one. How do you handle the rc files? Another quick question, how do you set the main dialog box that appears first when your program is first run? Say i created several dialog boxes and i want a certain dialog box to appear instead of the one that currently appears when the program is run. Thanks in advance

I use VC5 so, hopefully, the technique is at least similar.
In one project I combined three libraries into one and then
combined that with an app. I hope this is the kind of thing
you are speaking of. What I did was I loaded the app project
into VC. I then right-clicked at the top of project window (not
its titlebar, within it) and selected Add existing project to
workspace or something like that. I checked the box to make
the app dependent on the library and that's all there was to it.
If you have several libraries then load the app and insert them
from the top of the chain to the bottom with each one dependent
on its predecessor. This means the app depends on library 1,
library 1 depends on library 2, etc. If you export all of the makefiles
you can even build the whole works from the command line.
