   Could you help me with this link error?
  WinGameMain.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _DirectDrawCreateEx@16and the line of code generating this error is:DirectDrawCreateEx(NULL, (VOID**)&lpDirectDraw7, IID_IDirectDraw7, NULL);Any ideas on how to clear this up?Using MS VC++ 6.0 BTW  
  It looks like you haven''t linked against ddraw.lib (and remember to link against dxguid.lib too).  ;  Thanks for the response!
