[Boost-users] Error when including date_time files

I am having trouble with some date_time files. The following code (from 
the boost documentation):

#include "boost/date_time/posix_time/posix_time.hpp"
#include "boost/date_time/local_time_adjustor.hpp"
#include "boost/date_time/c_local_time_adjustor.hpp"
#include <iostream>

int  main()
{   return(0);
}

gives me errors

The environment is compiler Intel v9.0 in the VC6 IDE under Win2k

Can anyone suggest a solution?
