All right....   I have a struct declared like this in a header file.

typedef struct
{
int x; // x
int y; // y
int z; // z
} vert_3d;

Within the main .cpp file I have this declaration as a global. 

vert_3d p000;
p000.x = 0;
p000.y = 10;
p000.z = 20;

After compiling the program I get an error that says there is a syntax
error in this line and every one after. 

p000.x = 0;  //syntax error before '.'  

This error happens on every single declaration of the program in every
single struct I use.  The program gives no problems with the struct
declarations, only on the variable assignments themselves.  

Thanks for any help.
