I''m trying to use GetTickCount() so i have included mmsystem.h and linked with winmm.lib. When I compile I get: c:\program files\microsoft platform sdk\include\mmsystem.h(103) : error C2146: syntax error : missing '';'' before identifier ''MMVERSION'' c:\program files\microsoft platform sdk\include\mmsystem.h(103) : fatal error C1004: unexpected end of file found Any help? -db jeff@hype52.com www.pricezapper.com

Hmm, in mmsystem.h there''s a bit of code that looks like this:
#ifdef _WIN32
typedef UINT MMVERSION;
So, _WIN32 probably hasn''t been defined, cause it doesn''t know about the type. If it''s a win32 project it should auto be defined (I''m not sure, but it might be defined in windows.h, so make sure you''re including that. Otherwise in project->settings theres somewhere to tell it to define it).
