VC++ directories with environment variables

Where do the variables that are in VC++ Directories come from? For example,
there is a path $(FrameworkSDKDir) in the Executable files directories.
Where can I find out what this variable points to? It is not an environment
variable of my system.

Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?

Try the languages.vc newsgroup. And I believe they're set by the
environment - if you open a VS command prompt, they're set there too.
