How do I make sure it compiles as an exe?

"Oh my god!" to the 100th power! Thank you for that link!
It explained everything, all I did wrong was forget the quotations "" when adding the library into the input.
I wrote:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft DirectX SDK (March 2009)\Lib\x86\ddraw.lib
When it should've been
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft DirectX SDK (March 2009)\Lib\x86\ddraw.lib"
I feel silly for not realizing it... Thank you so much.

If you're new to this, using DirectDraw may seem quite complex, perhaps start on something easier?

Well, this is from a "Windows Game Programming for Dummies" book, so, if you've got a better suggestion as to where to start, please feel free to share.
