Compiling a strict-C application in MS VC++ 6.0
Author
Compiling a C program still results in a .cpp extension. Is there a way to compile to a .c extension?
If you give a file a .c extension it will be compiled as a C language file. Furthermore, in the file properties, under the C/C++ -> Advanced item, you can force "Compile as C Code" (equivalent to /TC on the command line).

Where do I find the first "file properties" step? I don't see that under File, for instance. Under languages, it has C/C++ selected, though, but still compiling with a .cpp file.

As you can find all properties in Windows: right-click. In this case, right-click on the file name in MSVC's project treeview.
