Another Serial "Undefined" Error (SOLVED - USER ERROR)

I read the topic:
http://www.visualmicro.com/forums/YaBB.pl?num=1443820744
I think I followed all the steps, I still get serial is undefined.
IDE: VS2015.
Board:Mega2560 Rev 3.
OS: Win7 32bit.

I was attempting to make a serial driving using C (not Arduino language), and I was receiving these errors.

I can create Win32 c++ applications, switching boards did not work - neither opening and closing visual studio (after saving).

I recreated the project with an INO file (as opposed to a C file), it finds HardwareSerial class fine.  Huh

Oh okay I missed the fact you were using a .c file. Yes you need to know what you are doing to use c++ from c  Smiley

Ah what a shame, I thought it was pretty much the same.
Do you know of any guides for this specific instances (Arduino C Serial communication) or what imports I need to use.

Thanks anyway. Grin

No, I don't bother with c. All code questions are best asked in the arduino.cc forum.
