title: Visual studio c++ adding copy of file to solution
body: <p>When using c# I would just add an existing item and it would put a copy of it in my project. I want to do this with a project in c++ but whenever I do it by default it seems to add it as a link, giving errors if I move the original files. The add as link option does not appear in the drop down on add like normally. How can I add copies of these files (header files and source files) so that new copies are made in the project.</p>
