Have you tried: Project Properties - General - Project Defaults - Character Set?

Burgos has the right answer. Just to clarify, the Character Set should be changed to "Not Set".

I have the same problem here, my program stills think UNICODE is defined even though I've checked the character set configuration and the preprocessor.

For example: In my code, the LoadBitmapW stills being the one used by the program while I need it to use the LoadBitmapA (along with more then 180 others #ifdef UNICODE...)

ifdef UNICODE

define LoadBitmap LoadBitmapW

else

define LoadBitmap LoadBitmapA

endif // !UNICODE

Im stuck here, dont know what to do know, I've also opened the .vcproj in notepad and looked for any UNICODE there, and couldn't find any.

So, do you ppl can help me? Suggestions?
