Hey,

I've tried and tried to figure out why the following code fails, but am not sure. I've posted the entire thing here along with errors:

I'm sure I'm doing a few things wrong. Thanks for the help.

try

#include <Windows.h>
#include <Commctrl.h>
#include <Tchar.h>

instead of using " "

Also whats with the random extern?

You are trying to initialize a variable already declared outside a block of code.

All his code is in static context instead of in a function...

At line 51 in the pastebin insert

This isn't the whole sources. Essentially, I've enclosed the createwindows in a function that will be called in main.cpp to make the GUI creation less messy in teh main source file.

EDIT: Here is all my code along with the errors posted below:

Opps. I was confused for a sec.

Try:

1.for now, move #include "childwindows.h" from Main.h to main.cpp and tell me what happens.

Waffles, you are having scope problems. Your use of extern is faulty.

In childwindows.h, you declare "extern HWND hWnd". Since childwindows.h is included by both childwindows.cpp and main.cpp, they both expect an HWND hWnd to show up in some other object.

In your WinMain, hWnd is a local parameter, meaning it does not take up the roll of your extern. Simplest fix (not necessarily best) is to change the name of extern HWND hWnd, assign to that when you do CreateWindowEx, and change all references to hWnd in CreateChildWindows to the new name.

Then you can declare HWND hWnd2 or w/e in either source file.
