    windows.h, as in your other post.
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.

    Post the code, please - as I suggested in the other thread on the same subject - perhaps we can keep to one thread?

    Seems to be two threads on the same problem, this one is done.
