[b:36j8ql6j]STEP 2:[/b:36j8ql6j] Setting up and building a program.
Now that you have gathered all of your files onto your computer, you will need to setup and install a new "solution". Antonio has detailed this beautifully, with screen shots, in the following thread for VS 2013:

[u:36j8ql6j]Here are some issues for Community 2015, and from some recent testing:[/u:36j8ql6j]
1) Antonio suggests a folder for libraries. I found that the IDE organizes those libs alphabetically, and does not allow you to order them. So, I went into the System Properties, selected Linker, and for input, I entered them as Dependencies. The only exception was that I put FiveH32.lib and FiveHC32.lib into the source folder as suggested. By doing it this way, I can actually put the .lib files into the list in which I want the linker to read them, and certain routines ( ie. Harbour TIP which has 5 files that must be linked in a specific order ) actually work.
2) In step 16, you declare /NODEFAULTLIB:MSVCRT You may also need to do the same for MSVCRTD
3) In the same step, you are told to add the windows libraries from a path specified as Windows SDKs. Now the path for those files needs to be:
c:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.1\bin\x86
Follow the same procedure but get the files from this new location for VS 2015.
4) Finally, VS IDE has a decent editor if you want to use it. Highlighting would be nice, and Antonio has provided a guide for setting that up in this thread:

A lot of time has been spent by Five Tech staff to bring this all together. I appreciate all they have done. I hope others will step in here and also start working with this and provide their input.
Yes, you can build FWH 64 bit applications also with the IDE.
