Thanks for your help Mike.
After I emailed you (and the list) the 2nd time, I took another look at the code and moved the structs above the declarations. I compiled and voila! Everything worked fine (for that part of my errors). Now... it's a new ball of wax... Changing and configuring things to the way I want them. ;) Thanks again for your help. It's appreciated. Expect more posts to the list from me later... when I start to mess with the code some more. -Jesse > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of rom- > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Sunday, February 12, 2006 9:26 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: ROM digest, Vol 1 #1013 - 2 msgs > > Send ROM mailing list submissions to > [email protected] > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > http://www.rom.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/rom > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > You can reach the person managing the list at > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of ROM digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.
