including an .h file

I have looked through some of the posts and understand how to include a .h file. I have my .cpp and .h file saved in the same place but when I compile I get the error that my .h file doesn't exsist??!! Any suggestions as to why this might be happening??

Code:

---

#include <string>
#include<iostream>
#include "avlbst.h"

using namespace std;
int item;

int main (){

        cout<< "Enter the item that you would like to place in the Binary Search Tree"<< endl;

                cin >> item;

                while (cin ){
                        AVLBST.AVLInsert(item);
                        AVLBST.PrettyPrint();
                }

                return 0;
}

i dont know what compiler yuou are using, but it is nessicary in msvc++ to link the file. to do this you do the following


* have both windows open( your .cpp and your .h )

* then go to project<<add to project<< then files, and you should see your header file there ... include it.

* to make sure they are together, click in th workspace bar below it says file view click on that and double click the project name it should drop down for ya :)

I am using msvc++ and I didn't link the two. Thanks very much!!!

no problem ;)
