I have tried to use the Sleep function and I keep getting error C3861:
'Sleep': identifier not found, even with argument-dependent lookup

I have included #include <windows.h> in the begining of the file.

Any help would be appreciated.

Any example of _how_ you "tried"?

This code:

#include <windows.h>
int main() {
Sleep(10000);
}

compiles fine for me even with VC++ v6.

Try 'using namespace std;' or 'std::Sleep(10000)'.

I hope this doesn't work <g>. Even though it would
be useful, AFAIK there is no std::Sleep(). Sleep()
is a windows function and should be found through
windows.h as Victor shows.

Why should I try anything? It already compiles *fine* for me.
Did you pay attention when reading my post?...
