visual c++ - Error LNK1169, Help!! I'm a beginner -

i given code error , fix it. don't know why can't run it. keeps saying "fatal error lnk1169: 1 or more multiply defined symbols found"

this original code have fix.

int value1, int value2, int value3 ; file outptr; outptr=fopen(“myfile.txt”, ‘w’); if(outptr) { printf(outptr, “ %f %f %f” , value1, value2, value3) }; fclose(outptr); else { fprintf(“the file myfile.txt not available”); } 

and came with

#include<stdio.h>  int main(void) {      int value1, value2, value3;     file *outptr;     outptr = fopen("myfile.txt", "w");       if(outptr)      {     printf("please put in values value1,value2,value3\n");     scanf("%d%d%d",&value1, &value2, &value3);     fprintf(outptr, "%d %d %d", value1, value2, value3);     fclose(outptr);     }      else     {     printf("the file not available");     }  } 

but keep getting error lnk1169. please me.

this sounds problem project have repeated function same name (possibly multiple main()s). when compiling compiler finding repeated function , complaining have declared twice. try removing code , placing separate new project , may find passes in isolation.

edit: found error definition confirms suspicion.
