VC++ 6 - > VS2005 ATL Compile Errors

[Doug Knudson]

Hi, I have tried allowing VS2005 to convert several existing 'VC++6 compilable' projects and with each the results are the same. Tons of ATL related compile errors. None of the projects that I am trying to convert even use ATL! I am assuming this is some sort of compiler/preprocessor setting? The errors occur in: atlalloc.h atlconv.h atldebugapi.h atltrace.h I have included below, the first part of the Output display from the compile. Any help, ideas or a pointer to an answer would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Doug

StdAfx.cpp
WINVER not defined. Defaulting to 0x0502 (Windows Server 2003)
NOTE: WINVER has been defined as 0x0500 or greater which enables
Windows NT 5.0 and Windows 98 features. When these headers were released,
Windows NT 5.0 beta 1 and Windows 98 beta 2.1 were the current versions.
For this release when WINVER is defined as 0x0500 or greater, you can only
build beta or test applications. To build a retail application,
set WINVER to 0x0400 or visit http://www.microsoft.com/msdn/sdk
to see if retail Windows NT 5.0 or Windows 98 headers are available.
See the SDK release notes for more information.
