You could use the Beep command...

Beep(523,500); // 523 hertz (C5) for 500 milliseconds
Beep(587,500);
Beep(659,500);
Beep(698,500);
Beep(784,500);

but you probably didn't want to hear...

What am I doing wrong?

I'm not quite clear on how to do that...
This is what I got so far.

{
cout << "What object do you want?";
std::vector - scan::iterator iter=vect.begin();iter...

Ok here is what I got so far.
When you type add, it asks what object would you like to add
When you type list, it lists those objects
When you type exit, you leave the program
What I would like...

I know this a long dead subject but... if anyone else has this problem like I did!

Ok, let's put it this way. I need to know how to set it up for my project without it interfering with OpenGL. I have a good idea which folder but don't know what DLL to put in. So far the manual has...

For unions. Unions cannot have base classes, and unions can not be used as base classes.
Did I get it right?

Thank you very much!! I post the cpp file so if anyone else needs help like I did they can get it here! You can consider this thread solved!

Thanx for the code optimization Ancient Dragon. Now if I could just figure out how to get the program to recognize the difference between saving and continuing in the first room and saving and...

Still got the same results. Did you type in the code and get it to work yourself? Because I had tried something to that effect before and had no luck.
