Using timeGetTime()

i get a strange error, and i don't really understand why.

Heres my code:

Code:

// test2.cpp : Defines the entry point for the application.
//

#include "stdafx.h"

HINSTANCE hInst;

LRESULT CALLBACK WndProc( HWND, UINT, WPARAM, LPARAM);

char szProgName[] = "Text Altering Program"; /* name of application */

int WINAPI WinMain( HINSTANCE hInst, 	/*Win32 entry-point routine */
					HINSTANCE hPreInst, 
					LPSTR lpszCmdLine, 
					int nCmdShow )
{
	HWND hWnd;
	MSG lpMsg;
	WNDCLASS wc;


	if( !hPreInst )			/*set up window class and register it */
	{
		wc.lpszClassName 	= szProgName;
		wc.hInstance 		= hInst;
		wc.lpfnWndProc		= WndProc;
		wc.hCursor			= LoadCursor( NULL, IDC_ARROW );
		wc.hIcon			= LoadIcon( NULL, IDI_APPLICATION );
		wc.lpszMenuName		= "Menu";
		wc.hbrBackground	= (HBRUSH)(COLOR_BTNFACE+1);
		wc.style			= 0;
		wc.cbClsExtra		= 0;
		wc.cbWndExtra		= 0;

		if( !RegisterClass( &wc ) )
			return FALSE;
	}

	hWnd = CreateWindow( 	szProgName,							/* now create the window */
							"Text Altering Program",
							WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW, //|WS_SYSMENU|WS_MINIMIZEBOX,
							CW_USEDEFAULT,
							CW_USEDEFAULT,
							CW_USEDEFAULT,
							CW_USEDEFAULT,
							(HWND)NULL,
							(HMENU)NULL,
							(HINSTANCE)hInst,
							(LPSTR)NULL		);

	ShowWindow(hWnd, nCmdShow );
	UpdateWindow( hWnd );


	while( GetMessage( &lpMsg, NULL, 0, 0 ) )					/* begin the message loop */
	{			
			TranslateMessage( &lpMsg );
			DispatchMessage( &lpMsg );		
	}
	return( lpMsg.wParam);
}

LRESULT CALLBACK WndProc( HWND hWnd, UINT messg,				/*callback procedure */
								WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam )
{
	float time = timeGetTime();
	char array[2];

	switch(messg)
	{
	
	    case WM_CREATE:	
			itoa(time, array, 1);
			MessageBox(hWnd, array, NULL, NULL);
	    case WM_DESTROY:
			PostQuitMessage( 0 );
			break;
	    default:
			return( DefWindowProc( hWnd, messg, wParam, lParam ) );
	}
	return( 0L );
}

the error i get is:

test2.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __imp__timeGetTime@0

Why am i getting that error? (I have included <mmsystem.h> in stdafx.h)

You need to link winmm.lib.

aha, thanks.
