Answer 1

Are you compiling it as a cosole project? You need to make a win32 project not console and compile it from there.

Answer 2

This line says it all:



1>LINK : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _mainCRTStartup



The linker (the program that pulls together all the pieces of code the program needs) couldn't find that _mainCRTStartup module, which, I suspect, is the name your main() needs to be named in the mode you're working. Visual Studio generally generates the skeleton main() function needed for the type of project you select.



Hope that helps.

Wow, it truly is a not ordinary one.... Paris of direction has the length, yet i imagine of the fleas have an side; they have were given the appropriate value and the wit to outpace Paris. There may want to be an upset in the fleas' winning streak of 9-0, notwithstanding the stats do precisely no longer tournament up, i ought to grant this one to the fleas.
