SetTimer Function problems

For some reason, the SetTimer Function is giving me some trouble. I call it using: SetTimer(hwnd, ID_TIMER, 40, NULL);

And for some reason, I get an error of "expected `)' before ';' token". But then where ever i call this function (originally it was in WM_CREATE), but if i call it in WM_COMMAND, all the other code in between is fine, so i know that its definitely that line, but i don't see how thats causing any problems?

Mis-matched ( ) in the declaration of ID_TIMER?

Not necessarily.
Create a whole new function before this one, and just call SetTimer from it. Does that compile as well?

Thanks, I realised that I foolishly did this:

Code:

---

#define ID_TIMER              1001;
