I have a C++ SDL project that i have written in Eclipse. Now i want to move that project into visual c++ express, since i want to use the debugger. I know that Elysian shadows first were in Dev c++ and then was moved to Visual c++. Is there any easy way of doing it, or should i use the "add existing item" button alot?

IDK if you really want to use express, you cant build distributable executable... if you really have to, do new project from existing files

im quite sure you just need this file: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/deta ... laylang=en to run it. BTW im pretty sure elysian shadows is written in the express version too.

I don't recall it being in Dev-C++ first but maybe it was way back.
We're (or at least I am) using MSVS Professional.

I think you can just hit new project, add existing files, etc. But you'll have to configure the project settings yourself.
