Compile Error using C++ VS6.0 using Notes API

[Andrew Luke]

Hi all you C++ guru's!

I'm 'very, very' new to C++ and I'm having a little trouble configuring
my VS environment I think - when I try and compile some sample code I'm
getting the following errors, any help would be 'greatly' appreciated!
:) Thanks heaps!

You'll want to post in

microsoft.public.vc.language
microsoft.public.vc.mfc

since this group is for platform-independent C++ discussion and mq.h is
not a standard C++ header.

Cheers! --M

Thanks, as luck (and fate) would have it I found the answer not long
after I posted this. For anyone else in future the answer was in the
LDD Forums;

https://www-10.lotus.com/ldd/46dom.n...9?OpenDocument

Just involves moving the notes cpp include directories to the top of
the list.

Thanks anyway!

It looks like you may be missing a header. Or your program is malformed.
