moving functions into visual compilers

[pastitprogram]

Bit of a problem here that I've sort of run into blindly not really thinking ahead of myself. I wrote a program, command line which basically has a few functions in it. It works fine and I was happy with it. I then decided to throw it into borland builder to make a little GUI for it only this is where im having problems. When i place the code under a button component it is a totaly different kettle of fish to me. I cnt use the 'int main' inside the button bracket (probs sounds obvious but i didnt think until i actually came to doing it) and it doesnt recognize any of my calls to the functions!? I'm a bit stumped

Basically, you need to realize that "under" your button, is a function. So put the code INSIDE the function, do not create another one.

I have been doing a bit of messing around to see what I can get from it. I understand what your saying I think i just have to work away of making my code fit in, if that makes sense. my basic shape of code looks like below. I'm guessing that its not just a case of stripping away all the function tags and main tags and it works? Sorry for my VERY basic minded approach but it is confusing me abit!

button                                   //would be the tags for the button
{




function 1()
{

}


function 2()

{


}


int main()
{


}



} // end of button

No, you can't have functions inside functions.
Put the code you want the button to do inside the button.
Put the rest of the functions OUTSIDE the button function.

For example, if the button code is inside main, move the entire code in main inside the button { }.
Then put the rest of the functions after the ending } for the button.
