Disable unicode compilation

[tylerfb11]

Hello everyone

I've been doing my coding thing - writing a program hapilly, runing into somthing that I dont know a function for (if one even exists), and then after failing to write my own method, asking uncle Google for a lil' help.

Now ive found the info i need to continue my project, but i need to turn off unicode compilation. Ive looked in project options but didnt find anything. How do I do such a thing? ;S

Thanks in advance!

What... unicode compilation or unix compilation?
What is your problem exactly? And what do you want to do, exactly?

When my program starts i want it to:

search the Local HDD for any file(s) with a .cpb extention.
once found, gather the name of the file and path.
save the path for later use, and add the file name to a listbox.

I found this msdn page that was quite helpfull: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa364418(v=vs.85).aspx

GetLastError() returns 2. one of the comments on that web page notes that this is solved by disabling unicode compile:
"It turns out that unicode compile settings were turned on. This caused the function to get the input file path (lpFileName) in the incorrect format."

Thank you for your help, if you need any more info feel free to say so. I always accept constructive critisim
