#4 Compiled in VS, wildcards don't work

I'm attempting to compile PNGcrush in both Visual Studio 6
and Visual Studio .NET. It compiles fine in both, but the
resulting executables both have the same problem;
whenever I execute them with a command line containing
wildcards, such as:

pngcrush -d outdir *.png

It
gives the error that it "Could not find file: *.png". This leads me
to believe that it's expecting the DOS shell to automatically
expand the wildcard like a bash shell would. However, the pre-
compiled DOS executable provided here doesn't seem to
suffer from that problem. Am I doing anything wrong?
