you must get result fast to not refuse of this all :)
at first, just try to make application from existing winasm template with no changes and see if it successful. i would suggest you base template:
http://www.winasm.org/index.php?ind=downlo...ry_view&iden;=51 - it is intended to be simpliest for starting.
if you will fail - tell us. if ok - add something you wish and run again - and watch what you will get, etc.
masm32 and other examples may confuse you first time as they are not winasm studio projects, so, you need create for each of them empty project, add files and check if their compilation parameters match to set in the project properties.
