Hello all.

Okay, I've solved this problem. I'll put the solution here in case it helps someone else.

In VC++ 7.0, in file afxstr.h, CString is declared as a typedef. Then later, when we tell the compiler that it is a class, the compiler crashes.

For my purposes, I tested whether __AFXSTR_H__ was set before I declared CString as a class. (If you have to puke, do it into a bag.)

                       Regards,
