Link error (unresolved externals)?!

[creative22]

Hi all

I'm using visual studio 2008;

I've installed Windows SDK(Platform SDK) recently and try to build some
sample codes of it, but I have problems!

When I build a sample code named "sampssp" of type "console application" and
"empty", I see this link error:

1>------ Build started: Project: sampssp, Configuration: Debug Win32 ------

========== Build: 0 succeeded, 1 failed, 0 up-to-date, 0 skipped ==========

I added the "msvcrtd.lib" into "additional dependency" section, but the
problem wasn't resolved!

What should I do?

Please help...

Do you have a main() function defined? Maybe if you posted a
simplified version of your code, we could diagnose it.
