I m using oracle pro compiler to connect to the database and execute dml statement in a C++ program using visual studio 2005. when this procompiler connects to database, it creates a communication area known as sqlca.
I have connected a file named test2.cpp, to databse using this compiler. Till now it works well. But when I use this compiler to connect to database in another file named test3.cpp, of the same project, then the compiler gives me an error of redefinition of sqlca.
The error looks like:

test3.obj : error LNK2005: "struct sqlca sqlca" (?sqlca@@3U0@A) already defined in test2.obj
Debug/AFEClientPublic.exe : fatal error LNK1169: one or more multiply defined symbols found
Build log was saved at "file://d:\AfeClientPublic43\AFEClientPublic43\Debug\BuildLog.htm"
AFEClientPublic - 2 error(s), 0 warning(s)


Thanks in advance.
