Hey All,

I am writing a Win32 dll. I included a class that can access database operations. I included afxdb.h in the headerfile and declared a variable in the header file for CDatabase.

When I compile, it gives me a error that windows.h already included. MFC apps must not #include <windows.h>;
Same when I try to include it in the .cpp file (below stdafx.h) it compiles without error.

Can any one help me around this please?

You have already asked this question in the C/C++/MFC forum. What makes you think that asking it again here will help anyone?
