I have eventually identified the problem, the original
app was written for the Pocket PC, which is only Unicode:

int WINAPI WinMain(HINSTANCE inst,HINSTANCE prev,LPTSTR cmd,int show )

notice that it uses an LPTSTR for the cmd parameter.

When I defined UNICODE for the desktop app, I copied this, however the
desktop app requires this parameter to always be an LPSTR whether UNICODE
is defined or not.
Thanks for the assistance,
Clive
