Errors building C# project

I'm trying to build my own example projects fro scratch to see how I can integrate DDS into Unity.

I made an IDL, converted to XML, generated a C# project from the XML, then tried to build it and I got the following errors.

It seems the root cause is a missing MSCOREE.lib file. What's the best way to remedy this?
