Setting up Application Project Properties in Visual Studio .NET 2003
Visual Studio Linker General Properties
Here we will examine the C++ Linker General Properties Tab.
Output File This is where you can specify the name and destination of your final executable. The default name is the same as the project: $(ProjectName).
It is best to not change the $(OutDir) prefix do a different destination. If you want the executable to be built in a different directory, you should change it in the Output Directory field on the Project General Properties Tab.
Additional Library Directories This is where you will put the paths to the library files (.lib) you wish to import (the names of the libraries are specified in the Additional Dependencies field on the Linker Input Tab).
