Hi,
I am a newbie to all this programmer stuff. I am a physics
student doing some computer simulations.
I was trying to use the special function atanh from boost libraries 
but couldn't.

The error message reads 
d:\boost_1_28_0\atanh.hpp(77) : error C2989: 'atanh_helper1_t<T,0>' : 
template class has already been defined as a non-template class

Some advised me to update my VisC++ ver 6.0 compiler.

How can I do that?

Does anybody out there have any better advise?

Thanks

sen
