You probably created a DLL project. Such DLL can be used by some executable. So, you should provide there a name of the executable that will load and use your DLL. Another option is to create another test project (executable) that will load and use your DLL. That would be just for testing purposes.

Try modifying working directory under Debugging tab. Set it to path of your DLL. – user1764961 Jun 04 '13 at 09:00

No, you didn't. ATL project can create 3 types of application: dll, exe and service (also exe). Based on your question, you selected the default one, the DLL. But, since we are still at the beginning, the question for you would be: "do you know what DLL is?" – user1764961 Jun 04 '13 at 12:01

If you know what DLL is, how come you cannot use it with some test exe created just for that purpose? – user1764961 Jun 04 '13 at 12:33
