Visual Studio 6.0, C/C++ Build errors

[Carneno]

Hello,

I am using Visual Studio 6.0, SP6 for this project on a Windows 7 Ultimate Dell desktop PC to build and run a C/C++ program originally developed in Visual Studio 6.0 environment. I do have Visual Studio 2005, 2010, 2012, 2013 and 2015 pro versions.

Here is a link of where to get this source code: https://sourceforge.net/projects/mmm3/files/magic/2.94%20b19/

Here is what I get when I try to Build\Build All:

Create the directory "C:\sp6temp" and give it write permission for the user you're running visual studio as.
