string var help

trask899

Hello, I am just using Visual c++ 6.0 for the first time. I am trying to use a string variable, I set up #include and my variable is string player1; I am getting 3 errors, all of which around this error, 'string' : undeclared identifier. I have been searching microsoft.com, I can't find a solution, I hope someone will help me. Thank you.

string is in the std namespace, so you either need to qualify it as std::string or add using std::string; before you first use it. using namespace std; will import the entire std namespace. - Mike

take care this point, while including the header for string class, use

#include <string>

don't use, #include "string.h" it wont work. Regards, Jijo. ;) ________________________________ Yesterday is history, Tomorrow is a mystery, But today is a present.
