Socket application in express

I have an old chunk of code which does some socket work. It was compiled many years ago and has always worked. Now I have to make a modification. I am now a Java developer so I figured I would download Express and quickly recompile the thing. The code includes winsock2.h and windowsx.h neither of which appear to be in the express distribution. Can you not create socket applications with Express

thanks

Bob

    Both should be in this folder :-

    \Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK for Windows Server 2003 R2\Include

    Which is to say, you must also install the Microsoft Platform SDK along with VC++ 2005 Express Edition. Follow the instructions here:

    (Do not use the video or any other instructions. Follow the ones above. Also, I recommend that you do the manual download of the PSDK CD-ROM image and burn a CD for yourself. It will be easier to install and you can reinstall and modify the PSDK install much more easily.)
