It looks like you made a console app. Console apps need a main() function, which is where execution begins. If you wanted a win32 app with WinMain(), create a new project and try Win32 Application rather than win32 console app.

thank you very much

You usually get that when you don't #include "stdafx.h" and you need to. I don't know what the point of a precompiled header is, personally (does anyone else?) but you need one if your project was created with one, which yours apparently was. At the top of every source file you'll need to #include "stdafx.h".

 

[Gmama]

Attached the #include but I guess I needed to put it at the very top. Thank you again for your help. I can't thank you enough Timmay.

You can also switch off the need for pre-compiled headers in your project settings. That will allow you to not include that stdafx.h

It remembers me something that can be fixed by changing the Project Properties/C/C++/Code Generation/Use run-time library....
