First you'll need to define UNICODE and _UNICODE. After that you'll need to use Unicode-aware functions, methods, and types (e.g.,
LPTSTR) .CStringis already Unicode-aware so nothing special needs to be done with it. For string literals, prepend them with an L.

In addition you also have to set the entry point symbol to
wWinMainCRTStartup. This can be done in the Project->Settings menu->Link tab->Output Category->Entry-point symbol. Also IMO, one is better off using the TCHAR macros rather then hard coding the unicode functions and string literals.
