This is my resource file. In my main file, I'm trying to use MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDD_ABOUT). Now, it says that IDD_ABOUT is undefined. Anyone have any idea as to why?

 

I use Bloodshed Dev-Cpp by the way, if that's relevant, which I think it is.

Make a resource.h file, where you define IDD_DIALOG and all the other resouces. Like:

#define IDD_DIALOG 1000
#define IDD_NEXTTHING 1001

 

Then include it in your .c(pp) file, and in your resource.rc file.

And if you do like that, I'm pretty sure you don't even have to use makeintresource.

Thanks! It worked! I owe you one.

He probably wants a blowjob.

or a dry hump...

I could use 1 of those... :wow: :wow:
