Welcome and thanks for the time in reading this.  I have a simple proggie
below.  When I try and compile it I get the error above (subject) the error
points to this part of mysql.h - the part specifically is highlighted in
red.

I am compiling it on Win2K SP2 with Borland C++ v4.52
I can't see any reason why this wouldn't work. Can you??


I also get 5 warnings:
WARNING MYSQL.CPP LineNo: Temporary used for parameter 1 in call  to
'istream::operator >> (int &)' in function main()
-  Well seeing as I have a problem anyway it seems silly not to mention it!

<extract from mysql.h>
#if defined(NO_CLIENT_LONG_LONG)
typedef unsigned long my_ulonglong;
#elif defined (__WIN__)
typedef unsigned __int64 my_ulonglong;
#else
typedef unsigned long long my_ulonglong;
#endif
<end of extract>
