I suspect the general answer is RTFM for DevC++ or gcc?  :-)  

If you really don't have the header files, you must be using a package of
some sort, and you might need the associated devel package or somesuch.   


If you have the header files but gcc doesn't find them, you have to tell
it where they are.  A quick look at win32/dev-cpp/FreeTDS.dev: 

$ grep / FreeTDS.dev |head
Includes=..;../../include
Linker=-lws2_32 -lkernel32 -luser32 -lgdi32 -lwinspool -lcomdlg32
-ladvapi32 -lshell32 -lole32 -loleaut32 -luuid -lodbc32 -lodbccp32_@@_-s
--def ../FreeTds.def_@@_-Wl,--enable-stdcall-fixup_@@_

shows the only paths are local.  The preprocessor (cpp(1)) needs to be
told where to look for .h files (the #include statements).  It has a
couple of built-in places 

$ printf '' | cpp -v
...
 /usr/bin/../libexec/cc1 -E -quiet -v -iprefix /usr/bin/../libexec/
-D__GNUC__=3 -D__GNUC_MINOR__=3 -D__GNUC_PATCHLEVEL__=3 -
#include "..." search starts here:
#include <...> search starts here:
 /usr/local/include
 /usr/include
End of search list.

it looks in, depending on how gcc itself was built.  Otherwise it depends
on its environment and invocation.

HTH.
