Default Floor covering advice: old concrete adjacent to new

I have a kitchen dinner area which has a new concrete floor area,
complete with insulation and damp proof membrane, and an adjacent area
of old concrete floor. The old floor had some vinyl tiles which were
damp on their underside when lifted.

I would like to install hard wood flooring over both areas.
Is there a hardwood floor glue I can use that also has damp proofing
properties or do I need to paint on a damp proofer and then the glue?
How to I find out about compatibilities of the two products?
Would tiling be easier i.e. is their tile adhesive available which
contains a damp proofer?

Thank you
