It is possible to use Visual C++ Express to develop applications that use DirectX: but you will have to separately download and install the DirectX SDK:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/directx/directxdownloads/

And probably also the Platform SDK:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/sdkintro/sdkintro/devdoc_platform_software_development_kit_start_page.asp

As both of these SDKs are not included as part of Visual C++ Express.

I have already download the DirectX SDK, but, it needs to include the windows API using windows.h.

Platform SDK is too large, i need know if this will provide me of all those include files to this work.

I'm making an application for my degree project, using video capture.

Thanks if you can get me more help.

If the Platform SDK is too large to download you can order it on a CD. Here is the link:

All you pay is for the shipping
