How to include a C library for multiple files

I have a program that went like this:

//this is main.c
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
...
#include "fileA.c"
#include "fileB.c"
...

//rest of main file

which worked fine but now when I replicated the exact same project (in VS) all the other files in the project don't seem to recognize the standard library #includes from some reason.

any help please?

Other files are independent files. As such, you must include the relevant header files in those files as well. Also, it is not considered a good practice to include .c files as it can easily result in linking errors due to multiple definitions.
