It should look like this: int STDCALL WinMain (HINSTANCE hInst, HINSTANCE hPrev, LPSTR szCmd, int nShow) Especially important is the STDCALL (WINAPI will also do I think) which gets that @16 tacked onto the end of the function name and makes it have the proper calling convention. If that's not the problem then I'm afraid I don't know what's wrong. Colin. -- Colin Peters - Saga Univ.
