How to change build options from Borland C/C++ to MS Visual C/C++

I've started a project with compiler/build options set for Borland C/C++. After I had the project working, I obtained the "cviinet.fp" from a colleague (which it was created using MS Visual C/C++ as the compiler option).
I'm now trying to use such fp, however, I am getting an incompatibility error because of the Borland C/C++ mode I used for my original project and MS Visual C/C++ mode used to created the fp.
How do I fix this? or how do I get around this issue?
Is it recommended to switch build options? If yes, how do I change build options for a project that has already been started and working?

You can re-run the CVI installer to change compatibility modes. On thing to note, National Instruments sells a toolkit for CVI called Enterprise Connectivity that includes an instrument driver for internet functions called "cviinet.fp". If you are using that and received it from a colleague, you are violating the software license. If he just happened to name his custom instrument driver cviinet.fp, then there is no problem.

For clarification purposes: the "FP" I'm referring to in my question is a "custom home-made" fp.
