I don't use that IDE, so I don't know. However, there is probably some kind of "add to project" to "add existing files" option, either on the File menu or the project's context menu.

Coincidentally, you might find some interesting reading here:

How To Open Header File In Dev C++.


What do you mean "open"? Do you mean create a new header file, or open one that already exists?

I Mean How To Create A Header File. Do You Know? But Except For Dev C++ Is There Any Good IDEs For C++?

The end of the article Xander314 lists a few. I personally suggest Visual C++ Express, which I personally find to be excellent.

A header file is just a text file containing code; usually class and function declarations and definitions. That's it. You make one the same way you'd make any other text file.

Creation of any type of file is usually found under the IDE file menu, or by right clicking the project in the solution explorer (if Dev C++ has one).

I recommend Visual C++ Express or Code::Blocks. If you really like Dev C++'s interface, check out wxDevC++.
