You probably need to add the line
#include "StdAfx.h"
to the top of your CPP file.
When your project is set to use precompiled headers (they're a way of making rebuilds faster), VC++ ignores everything in a CPP file until it sees this line. In fact you can throw in all the syntax errors you want and VC++ never sees them because it ignores all text before the include directive for the precompiled header.
