I'm going to assume you are NOT using VC++ 6. Ancient compiler. It
could be something VC++ 6-specific but later versions are pretty good
about migrating older code.

Large chunks of MSDN Library seem to be disappearing. Microsoft is
eliminating a lot of useful documentation about the OS and various APIs.
To what end, I don't know, but it can't be any good whatever it is (it
could be related to .NET - a useless idea they keep pushing and really
should simply stop).
