    <p>I wanted to see if I could bring this defunct open source project called <a href="http://www.tomseddon.plus.com/mousetool/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">MouseTool</a> up to date with Windows Vista. It's a dwell-clicker to help people (like myself) who experience pain when they click the mouse. This software simulates a click when the mouse pauses at a location on the screen. </p> <p>It seems like no one has touched this project in a few years so when I open it up in Visual Studio 2008, I get a ton of errors. I know very little about Visual Studio and was hoping these errors might ring a bell for someone here. Any tips that someone could provide on how I might go about starting to address some of these errors would be appreciated. </p> <p><strong>To excerpt an example, this error . . .</strong> </p> <pre><code>Error 18 error C2440: 'static_cast' : cannot convert from 'void (__thiscall COptionsSheet::* )(UINT,POINTS)' to 'LRESULT (__thiscall CWnd::* )(WPARAM,LPARAM)' </code></pre> <p><strong>. . . corresponds to this line:</strong></p> <pre><code>ON_MESSAGE( WM_NCLBUTTONDOWN, OnNCLDown ) </code></pre> <p><strong>from this block:</strong></p> <pre><code>BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP(COptionsSheet, CPropertySheet) //{{AFX_MSG_MAP(COptionsSheet) ON_WM_HELPINFO() ON_WM_MOUSEMOVE() ON_WM_SETCURSOR() //}}AFX_MSG_MAP ON_MESSAGE( WM_NCLBUTTONDOWN, OnNCLDown ) ON_MESSAGE( WM_NCLBUTTONUP, OnNCLUp ) ON_BN_CLICKED(ID_HELP, OnHelpButton) END_MESSAGE_MAP() </code></pre> <p><strong>Ring a bell for anyone?</strong></p>
