Yes. To clarify that, when I set up RSXNTDJ, I used the headers from VC
5.0, and they worked, although the diffs had to be patched in manually.
Later, however, I did download the latest SDK, and didn't see any
significant changes against the 5.0 headers.

There is also the DRDX distribution which includes sdk headers. However,
those are patched against a 1996 copyright version, and the diffs
against what I have running produces a 2.5 meg diff file.

I haven't gotten into DRDX yet, but there may be a problem there. AFAIK,
Microsoft is up to DirectX 3, and I think DRDX may be operating on an
earlier DirectX version.
