hello everyone,
Im a student having to write a C++ program and im running into an error that I have been unable to find the solution on my own. Im running into an error as I test run the program to make sure everything is still ok. The program isnt finished however at the moment it should still compile fine.

When I run this program I get the following errors:
BTW I am using VS 2005 on windows 7

}

Take out the #include "UTevent.cpp" in main

Add header guards...

#ifndef HEADER_FILE_H
#define HEADER_FILE_H

/* ... your header statements here ... */

#endif //HEADER_FILE_H

[EDIT]

Take out the #include "UTevent.cpp" in main

That too... I thought he #included "UTAevent.h"...

can any one send me C++ code for 2-3-4 tree insertion, deletion and search code plz...email snipped
