  As mentioned in the original post, you need to install the Microsoft Platform SDK (as described here - http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/visualc/usingpsdk/) to enable the DLL option.

  First of all, do you have the PlatformSDK installed. This isn't really necessary but using the major guide on installing this opens up the easy way of creating DLLs. Here is the link to the guide for installing the PSDK. The last step is what you really need in this.

  Once this is done you create the DLL project in this way.

  New Project->Visual C++->Win32->Win32 Console Application.

  This opens up the wizard. Select next and on the second page make sure to select the DLL radio button. When you create the project then, you will have the project set to create a DLL file.

  Take a look at using the /LD option. For more information and hot to set that through the IDE, please take a look at http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-US/library/2kzt1wy3.aspx

  Hope this helps!

  Well, that's all very well, but the DLL option is greyed out in my version.
