It's because unicode is enabled. You have two options: either disable unicode or use unicode strings: For the first solution, go into the project properties, C/C++ tab, preprocessor. In the "Preprocessor definitions" option, (you have to check on the grey button with '...' on it), uncheck "Inherit from parent or project defaults". This will disable unicode. For the second solution, use
MessageBox(_T("Hello"));. This will tell the compiler that "Hello" is an unicode string.

It was a typo in his post only. Otherwise the error message would have been different: 'MessageBoc': identifier not found
