fisrt of all: ok, I erred in the // (they did not appear in the original program). Re: vers., it's boost vers. 1_30_0 here's more info re the error, even admitting your changes: ---------- ------ Build started: Project: UnsignedShort, Configuration: Debug Win32 ------ Compiling...

If possible, please advise.
using lexical cast w/unsigned short fails, on MSVC7:
#include <boost\lexical_cast.hpp> #include <iostream>
int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[]) { std::string aStr("2"); unsigned short i = boost::lexical_cast<unsigned short>(aStr); \\ ERROR!
std::cout << i << std::endl; return 0; }
