This is a problem I''ve been having, with a variety of programs I''ve been writing recently (VC++ 6.0; Windows programs) When I go to close the window, it closes fine, but then when I try and compile again, it tells me there is some sort of linker error. It took me awhile, but I figured out that it meant the program is still running... except, it looks closed. Ctrl+alt+delete, however, reveals that it is still running. Without seeing any code, does anyone know what is causing this? I''m guessing that I''m missing the WM_DESTROY or whatever that message is and if that''s the case, I''ll just go through my code again and find out why. I just wanted to see if this is what the problem likely is though, before I go wasting my time

Ooh okay, well, I was aware that that was the problem (why I couldn''t write to exe) and it looks like I was right about missing a message. Thanks for confirming that
