Really dumb question

[RRain]

Ok I have actually been using the engine for a little while now and even after searching I still cannot find the answer to my question. Everytime I try and compile things with

"using namespace irr" I get an error even though irrlicht.h is in my include directory.

How do I solve my problem?

thanks

What's the error and what's the exact code you use?

And do you have #include <irrlicht.h> before using namespace irr?

[twilight17]

make sure its after #include <irrlicht.h> and #pragma comment(lib, "irrlicht.lib") if you use it.
