I don't know what could be the problem. Did you make any modifications to the code or the project settings before compiling?
Are you able to compile other MFC/C++ projects with your VC6 installation, e.g. a sample project created with the wizard? Maybe there is something wrong with the included system header files...

No i just unzip the files, and try to compile, and that error shows...
I do other project compilations and works fine, i don´t know if maybe is something wrong with shellapi.h the other project maybe don´t use this file.
I found this explanation in MSDN.
But i don´t know what to do.

Visual C++ Concepts: Building a C/C++ Program
Compiler Error C2501

'identifier' : missing storage-class or type specifiers

The identifier is declared without specifying its type.

Possible causes

* Spelling or capitalization error.
* Missing type specifier in the declaration of the identifier.

Example

// C2501.cpp
// Header file for the CUndeclared has been omitted:
class CMyClass {
private:
CUndeclared m_myClass; // C2501: Class unknown
} ;
