"Microsoft (R) Program Maintenance Utility Version 6.00.8168.0 Copyright (C) Microsoft Corp 1988-1998. All rights reserved. No configuration specified. Defaulting to MyProject - Win32 Debug. NMAKE : fatal error U1073: don't know how to make '"e:\win32app\microsoft visual studio\vc98\include\basetsd.h"' Stop. Error executing NMAKE." Please let me know which version of MS-VC6.0 will support this. OR do this project have 3rd party libraries. How to supress this NMAKE errors and complie the code successfully.

      I don't think you can 'make' a header file; check your project settings.

          Thanks for your reply. I was able to resolve this problem but now I am facing following error ".\Release\MyApp.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 2 unresolved externals NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'link.exe' : return code '0x460' Stop. Error executing NMAKE. " Do I need to change NMAKE file for this?

            Unresolved externals means you're missing source files or libraries. To fix this, you should add the missing files to the command link of the linker (link.exe).

                I tried to identify what is the problem for giving this kind of error and I found that one of function declared object of dialog class as follows Dlg_Details *pDet = NULL; and then it creates instance pDet = new Details_Dlg(); and here it is giving following err "error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "public: __thiscall Dlg_Details::Dlg_Details(class CWnd *)" (??0Dlg_Details@@QAE@PAVCWnd@@@Z) .\Release\myapp.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals" when i commented out above line of code (creating instance using new) then appln compiles and link properly. I tried to go to the detail and found that the constructor of above class is declare as "Dlg_Details(CWnd* pParent = NULL)" in header file and its implementation as in .cpp file is as follows. "CDlg_Card_Details::CDlg_Card_Details(CWnd* pParent /*=NULL*/) : CDialog(Dlg_Details::IDD, pParent) { //{{AFX_DATA_INIT(Dlg_Details) .... .... variables are initialized } and I tried to changing its declaration in header file as Dlg_Details(CWnd* pParent) but still the problem persist. Can you suggest where this code going wrong during linking. Regds SNI Regds SNI
