I downloaded and installed Visual Studio 2005 C++ Express Edition (inluding Visual C++ 2003 toolkit because it's no longer available as stand alone).
Then I started the Visual Studio 2005 Command Prompt. None of the examples worked. Are then for older versions then Visual C++ 2003 toolkit?

Please see the log:
