Can't see how to compile a header file with /clr switch in a mixed class

Question

When creating a mixed mode class, on compilation the header file complains that it needs to be complied with the /clr switch as it is a mixed mode class, however, I can't see any option to specifically compile that header with /clr from visual studio, and I don't want to set the entire project with a /clr flag,

Does anyone know how I can specify that this header file is compiled correctly with /clr?

Thanks in advance!

You don't compile header files. You compile the implementation (.cpp) files which subsequently 'include' these files. — Moo-Juice, Jan 07 '11 at 14:54
So the .cpp file does have the /clr flag set but on compile vs errors that the .h file needs the /clr flag — MattN, Jan 07 '11 at 14:59
Then you're doing something else wrong. The header files shouldn't be compiled at all. — jalf, Jan 07 '11 at 21:03

Every cpp file that includes the header needs the /clr flag, not the header itself.
