Thread: Strange mmsystem error

Hi, I'm currently working off a tutorial, but I can't get past the 3rd line of code This is my code so far:

Code:

#pragma comment (lib, "dsound.lib")
#pragma comment (lib, "winmm.lib")

#include <mmsystem.h>  //<----------
#include <dsound.h>

When I try to compile, I keep getting this error:

Code:

(...)/mmsystem.h(113) : error C2146: syntax error : missing ';' before identifier 'MMVERSION'
(...)/mmsystem.h(113) : fatal error C1004: unexpected end of file found

I'm pretty sure all the proper libs are linked, at least all the ones mentioned in the tutorial, unless the #pragma comment isn't the correct way to do it (?). The program compiles fine if I comment out the "#include <mmsystem.h>". Does anybody know what I'm doing wrong, or should I reinstall my compiler/sdk?

Ok, thanks. I'll try it when I get home, I think it should work.

**EDIT**
You da man!
