The problem is that these functions are *not* deprecated in the C++ standard. The terminology "deprecated" has a specific meaning and wheter a function is deprecated or not is set by the C++ standards committee, *not* Microsoft. I believe Microsoft admitted the snafu and has relented, so future versions of the compiler won't use the word "deprecated" in the warnings. Here's a link with a bit more information: http://www.informit.com/guides/content.asp?g=cplusplus&seqNum=259&rl=1 regards, --tom P.S. Of course, this doesn't solve your problem--unfortunately, since I don't use this compiler I don't really have an answer for you (sorry).
