WinPCap Problems

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

I am starting a project for an internship off on a bad foot. I need to
use WinPCap for my program and even after including pcap.h, I am
getting errors that things are undefined. I completely followed the
tutorial source in the documentation too!

Error executing cl.exe.

Here is my include chain:

#include <pcap.h> // pcap functions
#include <iostream.h> // basic io
#include <fstream.h> // file io
#include <string.h> // string funcs

Am I doing something wrong? I placed all of the include files in VC's
include file too....

Thanks.
