commctrl.h???

Hi,

I'm trying to use the BTNS_SHOWTEXT on a toolbar. However, I keep getting an undeclared identifier error. I'm guessing its something to do with the version, although I don't know. I'm using WinXP, as I think that makes a difference?

Thanks
Uni

You probably have an old version of the headers....

Download the Base platform SDK from Microsoft.....set your compiler's directory paths to the relevant folders and you will get the new stuff when you code.

The download works with VC++....havent tried with any other compiler

Hi,

Thanks for your quick reply!...erm is there any chance you could point me to a link as I'm not fully sure what I'm looking for. I've tried the microsoft site, I've done a search from the msdn site, in the "code and download" section and it came up with the following results:

Thank you very much,

THANK YOU!!!

ack...got a slight problem

I've pointed the compiler to the new libraries and took out the old ones, however, it complains it can't find simple things like:

iostream.h

which are not in the new SDK library...???


Any ideas,
Thanks,
Uni

Dont remover the older ones....just put the sdk paths first..
