How create CIN with visual C++

I am trying to generate a CIN for the following example C code (mult.c)
/*
* CIN source file
*/

#include "extcode.h"


CIN MgErr CINRun(float32 *A, float32 *B, float32 *AB);


CIN MgErr CINRun(float32 *A, float32 *B, float32 *AB) {


*AB = *A * *B;


return noErr;
}


My makefile is

name=mult
type=CIN
cintoolsdir=C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 6.1\cintools
!include <$(cintoolsdir)\ntlvsb.mak>


I'm following the istructions in the LabVIEW Code
Interface Reference Manual to compile a CIN using visual c++, but when I open the makefile
whith visual C++ don't showme the messages mentioned in the manual and I can't add the mult.c file.
I'm using Labview 6.1 and MVC 6.0

Can anyone help?

I am not sure what the problem could be. I have followed the steps in "Using External Code in LabVIEW" manual with LV6.1 and VC++6 with success in the past. You can find the manual by opening LabVIEW >> help >> search the LabVIEW bookshelf. This launches a pdf with hyperlinks to all the LabVIEW shipping documents. The manual will be listed there.

The manual has been updated for 7 so you may want to look for it online for the latest information.
