beginner trying to compile this simple program in Vide with bcc32 compiler.
I get this when I try to build.

! Error: Unresolved external 'WinMain' referenced from
C:\BORLAND\BCC55\LIB\C0W32.OBJ
what could the problem be ??


#include <stdio.h>
void main()
{
char name[20];
char color[20];
printf("what is your name?");
}

You should really ask this in a VIDE or borland forum/newsgroup, how
to use your particular compiler isn't the topic here.

There should be some option to build a non-windows application, possibly
a called a console application, IIRC bcc has an comandline option -tWC
to do this.

If VIDE lets you pass command line options type bcc32 -h at a command
prompt to find out what options there are.

I put "borland newsgroups" into http://www.google.co.uk and got this:

HTH.
