headerfile.hpp

typedef unsigned short int doublebyte;

typedef class ptr_array< char>* char_ptr_array_ptr;
typedef class ptr_array< int>* int_ptr_array_ptr;
typedef class ptr_array< double>* dbl_ptr_array_ptr;

template< class T>
class ptr_array {
    private:
        T** member;
        int count;
    public:
        int append( T* t_member);
        int append( char* str);
};

==========================
========================

cfile.cpp

template< class T>
ptr_array< T> :: ptr_array( T* t_member)
{
    append( t_member);
}

class ptr_array< int> :: ptr_array( char* str)
{
    int t_member = atoi( str);
    append( t_member);
}

class ptr_array< double> :: ptr_array( char* str)
{
    double t_member = atof( str);
    append( t_member);
}

==========================
=======================

I am trying to compile a program that compiled an ran under
Watcom 11c but gives me an overloaded operator error under
Visual Studio 6.0
Any help would be greatly appreciated
I gave an abbreviated version of the class.
Please let me know if anything else is needed to resolve.
