#include < windows.h >
#include "sysmets.h"

LRESULT CALLBACK WndProc (HWND, UINT, WPARAM, LPRAM);

int WINAPI WinMain (HINSTANCE hInstance, HINSTANCE hPreInstance, PSTR szCmdLine, int iCmdLine)

{
   static TCHAR szAppName[]=TEXT9"SysMets1");
   HWND hwnd;
   MSG msg;
   WNDCLASS wndclass;

   wndclass.style      =CS_HREDRAW | CS_VREDRAW;
   wndclass.lpfnWndProc=WndProc;
   wndclass.cbClsExtra   =0;
   wndclass.cbWndExtra   =0;


Within that code there is a mistake. Anyone care to call it. Yes, the code is incompletre, but that isn't the error.

Is It the lack of a } at the End?

nope...the snippet is incomplete so there would be no closing brackett. But good catch had it been a complete source file.

Ahh Darn, <slaps head with a pinata stick>

hehe, oh well, I'll wait and see what It is. unless It's using the wrong case "L" or "i"

static TCHAR szAppName[]=TEXT9"SysMets1");

Does there need to be a ( since there's a ); at the end?

Just a wild guess.

Close.

that line should read:

static TCHAR szAppName[]=TEXT("SysMets1");

Nice catch.

  int WINAPI WinMain (HINSTANCE hInstance, HINSTANCE hPreInstance, PSTR szCmdLine, int iCmdLine)

missing a semi-colon at the end?

No, that's what the { below is for.
Had it been a declaration only, and not a definition, then yes the missing ; would be a catch.

Got it. Of course. It was easy. You've used C++ (or some bastard variant).  Always a big mistake that.

Golly, I hope you didn't want it in C or Pacal.
