over to using the new Standard <iostream> and included the using namespace
std; . This seems to have fixed all the errors I was getting because of
mixing the old and new headers. The problem I am running into now is not an
error but 10 warnings when compiling the same class header implimentation
file that I was working with when I was having the problems with the map
class(or so I thought). I get 10 warnings of type C4786. I looked up the
warning and got this.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Compiler Warning (level 1) C4786
'identifier' : identifier was truncated to 'number' characters in the debug
information
The identifier string exceeded the maximum allowable length and was
truncated.
The debugger cannot debug code with symbols longer than 255 characters. In
the debugger, you cannot view, evaluate, update, or watch the truncated
symbols.

The warning is pointing here in the implimentation file (only the beginning
snippet not the full file for sake of space)
(<--*) Points to line indicated by debugger

I can't seem to figure out why this warning is getting sent to an end brace.
The Class member function seems to be declared right and there are no other
identifiers afterwards which the debugger could be misreading. I think there
must be something being read wrong earlier as I have no identifiers nearly
as large as the max of 255. The other strange thing is that not all of the
warnings are for my code but a few point to code in a "xtree" and "utility"
file which I assume to be part of a standard header I am using. I'll list a
full warning of each type.. one that points to my code and one that points
to code in a "xtree" file.
-Warning pointing to the line indicated in implimantion file-

Any help at all would again be most appreciated. Thank you for your patience
with this confused youngster.

ps I've included below the interface header file which is included in the
implimentation file in the off chance that the problem may be found there;
