Hi

I am new to C++, using VS NET 2003


I used the wizard to create a simple MFC Application project and did not
add or change anything.

When I try to compile there are many errors, the first is really strange:


error C2059: syntax error : ')'

in the afxdlgs.h line:

void CFontDialog(LPLOGFONT lplfInitial = NULL, DWORD dwFlags =
CF_EFFECTS | CF_SCREENFONTS, CDC* pdcPrinter = NULL, CWnd* pParentWnd =
NULL)


Do I need new libraries?
If yes, how?


Thanks in advance

JK

What happens if you select other templates and attempt to create a project,
like plain Win 32 or Win 32, then select Console Application?
As I was unable to replicate your difficulties here by creating an MFC
project in VS .NET 2003, then clicking Finish (the project compiles and runs
fine), my initial impression is that your installation of Visual Studio is
flawed. I'd be considering a complete uninstall/reinstall, pending further
details on your situation.

I do not have SP1 installed here as it is not installed in the classrooms
and labs of my college and I must remain compatible when correcting
assignments.
If you did install SP1, uninstall it and see if that changes anything. If
you did not install SP1, there is a problem on your PC.

your environment is the same as mine, that's all

I did not change any configuration for MFC.

If the only solution is to reinstall everything, I will not use MFC.


Thanks for your answer
