add 2nd cpp file to c++ .NET project

[Steve Richter]

I have a .CPP full of orderly, yet unmanaged code that I use in all of
my MS Visual C++ 6.0 projects.

I use "add existing item" to add the .CPP file to my C++ managed
application project.

How do I Ctrl+F7 compile this .CPP file? When this file has the focus
in visual studio, the compile icon is grayed and ctrl-f7 does not
work.

When I build the project the "add existing item" file is compiled. I
just dont know how to compile it by itself as I was able to do in 6.0.

thanks,

-Steve

disregard. I think I have stumbled onto the answer.

Next question ... How do I change the font in the text editor?
