Most probably ... make sure that you are having the DX9 directories on top of the list.

For more functionality ... you might want to look at the Add ons that come for Microsoft VC++, they help and color the syntax very neatly :)

A sticky topic right at the top of this forum does mention that DX9 9 (dec version) is not compatible with VC 6. Your problems may well be linked with this unless u r using the october version.

If you're talking about IntelliSense (MSVC's auto-complete feature) not working properly, then AFAIK it's related to a problem with MSVC 6.0.

To get auto-complete information for DX9 in MSVC 6.0, you'll need to add the DirectX header files to the workspace for your project as described in the FAQ for this forum: http://www.gamedev.net/community/forums/showfaq.asp?forum_id=10#autocomplete

An alternative which will also get you extra features is to purchase a copy of Visual Assist from http://www.wholetomato.com/

If you're having problems compiling and/or linking your DirectX based code, then make sure the paths to both the include and library files in the DirectX 9 SDK are set up in MSVC (Tools -> Options... -> Directories). Also make sure that the DirectX 9 paths are at the *TOP* of the path lists so that MSVC doesn't find older files first.
