Ok... When you are done laughing your tails off....

....I beggs too differ....

Meow! That should be a warning message not an error message telling me that there are too many warnings! meow!

You should know that it is a rather large project with many files and graphics. It is still in the debug and not compleated yet.
I know there are many declared varibles that are not used yet becasue it is not done yet.
<Hissss> but not to compile because of one error that is not an error at all!<Hissss>



i eventualy did get it to compile. i am rather ashamed to ask becasue i have never used that function of the compiler <borland5.5 free command line tools>
listed is " -wxxx Warning control " ....so " -w- " would turn off the switch...
would that turn off the warning messages? or just turn off the error message "Too many error or warning messages in function... "?

Never tried this in Borland or C.

Have you tried using something like...

#pragma warning(once: 8070) //show warning 8070 only once

#pragma warning(disable: 1706) //disable error 1706

Possibly incorrect assignment in function MDIChi
ldWndProc

This does not look like an undefined symbol error. This error usually results from using the = operator incorrectly.

if (variable=value) ...

This will fire that error.

Want my advice? Fix the warnings now before you expand the code base.
You want this:

0 errors.
0 warnings.
0 memory leaks.

Just because a warning is not an error and won't stop compilation does not mean it should be taken lightly.

Yes, you should aim to get this down to at least single digits, preferably 0.
Otherwise you're never going to spot the new warning you should be paying attention to if you already have several 1000 as background noise.

thank you novacain i will try that.

Fix the warnings now before you expand the code base.

yes bubba that is exactly what i was doing. before i fixed the "declaration is not allowed here" i had declared variables in functions which i do all the time but for some reason it would not allow it in this prog. thus leading to a bad habbit of makeing global variables that i have.

salem i am trying...just thought that the "error" for haveing to many error messages should have been a warning. and funny.

i started borland with 2.0 and had the 5.5 since it was released for free. i am glad it does win32. i have had it a while and still useing it. am i the only one who get the weird errors? <retorical>

Well if you're compiling old code with a new compiler, there's usually a flurry of all sorts of new problems and minor issues to be worked through.

I always build with full warnings enabled (-Wall or /W4) and ensure my code is 100% warning free.

no not old code. i started typeing it last year.

i tryed -wall but it still cut off after 26 warnings with the toomanyerrormessage .

thankyou all for the suggestions.
