Sorry, I guess I wasn't specific enough. VC6 compiler. The warnings are usually like this; c:\program files\microsoft visual studio\vc98\include\xmemory(39) : warning C4100: '_P' : unreferenced formal parameter c:\program files\microsoft visual studio\vc98\include\xmemory(41) : warning C4100: '_P' : unreferenced formal parameter c:\program files\microsoft visual studio\vc98\include\vector(249) : warning C4663: C++ language change: to explicitly specialize class template 'vector' use the following syntax: template<> class vector > ... I'm also getting alot of signed/unsigned mismatches and casting warnings. It's ok though, I just modified the offending files with pragma directive and everything seems to be working fine. Thanks!

Is there any way to turn off warnings for visual studio headers while still keeping a high warning level on your project code? I looked briefly in the forums but couldn't find anything that specifically applies.
