No I understand that I have run into that problem going from windows
to unix. The thing is I just downloaded the source from the palm os
website. Then I opened it up and try including everything and got that
error.

For now I have to wait and see because my computer decided to stop
functioning and the network/techies at my work took it from me. I have
another computer which I can use but it is mac(eww) so I would have to
set everything up on that. So I may not be able to work on it til next
week cause tomorrow is holiday(Canada Day).

Thanks,

Landon Cunningham
