How to modify and rebuild source code (like Calibrui)?

Another PB newbie question:

I found this under the Help topic "Customizing the Touch Screen Calibration
User Interface Component":

    "To customize Calibrui, modify and rebuild the code located in
%_WINCEROOT%\Public\Common\Oak\Drivers\Calibrui."

I need to make a small change to calibrui.cpp, so I edited the source file
(in the directory mentioned above) and rebuilt the platform in PB (4.2), but
the change was not picked up. I guess I don't know how to "rebuild the
code", as specified in the help topic. There's no project or workspace
files that I can find to compile this under eVC++ 4.0, and there's no object
file under that directory either. I was hoping the rebuild in PB would
somehow re-compile this source file, but I guess that didn't happen.

All I have in the directory mentioned is calibrrc.h, calibrui.cpp.
calibrui.rc, makefile, makefile.inc, and sources. I tried running nmake on
the makefile, but it didn't work.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?
