Qt cannot open include file on Windows

Question

I am very new to Qt and C ++. I follow the qmake example on page 40 (Rapid Dialog Design) of C ++ GUI programming using qt 4 (2nd ed) from Blanchette and Summerfield.

I am running qt 5.5.1 on 64 bit Windows 10. VS 2013 is installed.

I ran qmake -project and qmake gotocell.pro, as in the instructions, then nmake from C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\bin\amd64

I got this error:

        "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\bin\amd64\nmake.exe" -f Makefile.Release
