error C3861 identifier not found

Non Disclosure (2)
Hello. I"m new here, so bear w/ me.

I'm coding a DLL to be used in the Metatrader platform. I've been successful in passing the data between the 2 platforms.

What I'm doing now is trying to put the code out of the MQL 4 language and into the C++ dll. I've done all the translating correctly, but I get this error when I try to compile.

I'm using VS2010. Here's the code:

	return returnvalue;
}


Like I said, I can pass data back and forth just fine. I can't seem to call the extra function i've added.

PS. The last time I did 'C' coding, C++ didn't exist yet. So please, be gentle. :)

solved it. I moved the get_signal function up above the other 2.
