I am really out of practice with C++ and I want to get back into it
now. The program 'value.cpp' and its header file 'header.h' can be
found at:
When things like that happen, the language really has nothing to
do with it. If a file cannot be open due to permission conflict,
it's the installation issue or a log-in issue or something else
operating-system-related.
Please ask in microsoft.public.vc.ide_general. It's quite possible
that you're not going to get far, since VC++ v4 is at least eight
years old. Be prepared to read "you're on your own".
I recommend you to find a good open-source development environment,
like Dev-C++ along with MinGW. You will have a compiler that is
much closer to the language as specified in the Standard, and the
build environment that is much more up to date.
