I follow an example book called: An Introduction to 3D Programming Games with DirectX 11
Everything is written in VS2010. I would like to try using VS2013 ... This is a sample project for the Windows Desktop Program
I have a program with the following in it (including some other files as part of general use):

When I compile it, it throws an error:
FXC : error X3501: 'main': entrypoint not found
What is the entry point of my example shader file? and how to set this in the shader compiler properties? do I also need to install it in shader 5, given that it mentions vs_5_0 in the shader file?
I tried a variant of the following article: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsapps/en-US/51859322-fc36-4946-b4cb-b5971fcaa9e5/fxc-error-x3501-main-entrypoint-not-found? forum = wingameswithdirectx , but just can't get it to work.
