It doesn't matter.  If you don't have one, make an empty one.  The point 
is, VC++ isn't smart enough to understand that a project is a C++ 
project if there are no files with a .cpp extension in it, so it won't 
show the C++ configuration options.

That should not be necessary.  You can reference the built MySQL++ 
library anywhere on the hard drive.

That's only used by the examples.  The only headers you need are in the 
lib subdir.

Did you add the MySQL++ library to the list of libraries linked to the 
program?
