I've found out how to do this from the Microsoft site. For anyone else interested, you need to do this from eVC:

To add the HI_RES_AWARE resource item to your program
From the Insert menu, select Resource.
Click the Custom button.
Enter CEUX for the resource type.
Set the resource data to 01 00.
Click the Properties tab.
Rename the item to "HI_RES_AWARE", including quotes. (If the quotes are omitted, HI_RES_AWARE will be incorrectly defined as a numeric value in resource.h, and you will need to go back and delete the line from resource.h.)
Deselect the external file checkbox.

It works a treat! My other questions are still open to answers, though I will keep hunting!
