NetBeans doesn't provide a way to integrate microsoft compiler in its IDE. This is probably because it doens't have rights to do so. With NetBeans you can integrate only GNU compilers for C/C++. To use Microsoft C/C++ compiler, you have to use MS Visual Studio IDE, or MS Visual Studio provided command line tools.
