I just spoke to Technical Support at Multiscope
Yes you do need the Windows SDK from Microsoft to do Windows programming.
The required tools do not come with the compiler package.

But you can get from Multiscope the Whitewater Resource Toolkit which
is a MS-Windows high level toolkit and doesn't require the MSWin SDK
to do Windows programming. That toolkit is available for $99 (guess i'll
get one)

Also, its true that Multiscope has been taken over by Symantic, but the
takeover will be a positive change by giving more resources to
Multiscope products.
