Lionel,
Check the part of your program *before* the '#include "windows.h"' (either
the program itself, or the header files). This could be a common C
problem with a missing semicolon after a struct definition (e.g.,
something like
struct AAA {
int blah;
}
void main(void) { ... }
will give you a similar error).
