    Linking errors

    I'm encountering for the first time linking error.
    can anyone tell what they mean?
    Code:
    MSVCRTD.lib(crtexe.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _main referenced in function _mainCRTStartup
Debug\ATest1.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals
    Thanks.

    Generally i believe that means you probably created the wrong type of project. Make sure your doing a win32 console project. Most times i get that its b/c of that.
