I know I asked about this for Dev C++, but I just got Visual C++ 6. How do I fix the problem in here?

Change the project type to "Win32 Application". SDL provides its own WinMain internally.

I think it wasn't the question. The question was ( if I interpreted correctly ): how is it possible to get rid of the console window that appears behind your program when you are using SDL. I had that console behind my programs when I was using SDL too, I was told that it was impossible to remove it and to live with it lol

You can get rid of it. I just explained how. You don't know how, but you refute my suggestion?

Weird.
