running a c and c++ program together 2

[newbieKing]

Hi, I've got a c program that cannot be saved as a c++ file. When I try to save it as C++, there are several compile errors.
Anyways, I need to get the results from this C program and transfer what it returns to another C++ program.
How are you supposed to link and run everything??
I'd appreciate any help.
Thanks

c:\visualc++\udpclient1\macaddress.c(56) : fatal error C1010: unexpected end of file while looking for precompiled header directive
Error executing cl.exe.
Creating browse info file...
BSCMAKE: error BK1506 : cannot open file '.\Debug\macAddress.sbr': No such file or directory

I think you should add #include"stdafx.h" at the first line of each .cpp file.

There is no real need just go renaming your C files to CPP files just to call them from C++
