[vtkusers] porting to windows

Mon May 1 02:01:56 EDT 2006

Hi Paul,

Thanks so much for your reply,

So I had already tried it with and wtihout "using namespace std;"

With it, I go from 22 errors to 72 errors , including the errors I had 
previously that I posted. The additional errors all look something like 
this:

error C2872: 'cout' : ambiguous symbol
error C2872: 'cin' : ambiguous symbol
error C2872: 'ofstream' : ambiguous symbol

:s
