I assume you have a CMarkup.cpp file. Add it to your project by

Add -> Existing items ...

and Visual Studio will compile it and thereby produce the CMarkup.obj file. It will put that file under .\Debug or .\Release depending on which configuration you are building. Hence the linker will find the object file in the right place automatically.

i have added markup.h and marup.cpp already.

Then please check the properties of the Markup.cpp entry in the solution explorer. Either the file is excluded from the build (you would have probably noticed that by the red icon overlay in the treeview) or int the OutputFiles section the setting for "Object File Name" is not set to "$(IntDir)/". These are the two most likely places that could be set wrong.

To check that everything is working, right-click Markup.cpp and select "Compile". Afterwards you should have the Markup.obj in your intermediate directory (that's what $(IntDir) stands for). So in a debug build the object file should be in your projects .\Debug directory.

CMarkup xmlSettings;
MCD_STR strLoginFilename = _T("Login Testing.xml");
BOOL bTestingFileLoaded = xmlSettings.Load( strLoginFilename );
if ( !bTestingFileLoaded )
{
xmlSettings.SetDoc( NULL );
xmlSettings.AddElem( _T("Login Testing") );
bTestingFileLoaded = TRUE;
}
if ( bTestingFileLoaded )
{
CMarkup xmlLogin;
xmlLogin.Open( strLoginFilename, CMarkup::MDF_WRITEFILE );
xmlLogin.AddElem( _T("Login ID") );
xmlLogin.SetAttrib( _T("Value"), _T("Add Login ID Value") );
xmlLogin.AddElem( _T("Password") );
xmlLogin.SetAttrib( _T("Value"), _T("Add Password Value") );
xmlLogin.SetAttrib( _T("DateTime"), (LPCTSTR)CTime::GetCurrentTime().Format("%d-%b-%Y %H:%M:%S") );

xmlSettings.ResetChildPos();
xmlSettings.IntoElem();
xmlSettings.AddChildSubDoc( xmlSettings.GetDoc() );
xmlSettings.Save( strLoginFilename );
xmlLogin.Close();
}

hi this is how i am creating an xml file, it creates an xml file but i cant see any data in the xml file (blank)

Is this still the same question as above, or have you resolved the original issue and this is a new question?

xmlWrite.AddElem(L"Login");
xmlWrite.IntoElem();
xmlWrite.AddElem(L"LoginID", getLoginstr);
xmlWrite.AddElem(L"Password", sEncrypted);
xmlWrite.AddElem( L"DateTime", (LPCTSTR)CTime::GetCurrentTime().Format("%d-%b-%Y %H:%M:%S") );
xmlWrite.OutOfElem();
xmlWrite.save(paath);
