i get two errors when i compile this. the first tells me i cant overload winmain the second says i cant convert parameter two from x-type to y-type in the part where i have "windowhandle = CreateWindow(...); in the initialize window function. i am not sure what i am doing wrong. i have typed the code twice. and i am using VS2k5 pro ed. thanks in advance
