Cast it to a char* or a BYTE*. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/1kay26wa%28VS.80%29.aspx some compilers assume a 'void' type is a char/byte type and treat it accordingly. MS compiler doesn't do that, it (possibly correctly) treats a void as a 'non type' without a size. The workaround is to explicitly tell it what size to use.
