I've installed the SDK. Do I need to change the location of the includes,
libraries, etc. in "Options" on the "Directories" tab? They currently point
to the Visual Studio subdirectories and the new SDK has it's own directory.

You probably want to ensure that the new PSDK directories are searched
before the older VC6 directories.

Yes, you need to put the new platform SDK ahead of the standard include directories.

Presumably that link is refering to the latest SDK. I've just ordered an
older version - the Feburary 2003 Edition Windows SDK ("the last version
that works with VC 6"). You need to get it on CD (or I think MSDN
subscription if you get that).
