Fall in the pit of success by using an appropriate project template. Which is Win32 + Win32 Project, don't tick the "Empty project" option on the property page. You'll get pre-generated code for a Win32 application, take a look at it since you might want to keep parts of it. Or just delete it all past the #include for stdafx.h and replace it with the code you want to try. The stdafx.h file is already pre-cooked for you.
The second snippet probably fails to compile because the code sample is not using Unicode strings. Put an L in front of the string literal, like L"\tHello world".
