Read the FAQ beofre posting any questions to this NG. We have some
really good advisors and some really good flamers. I got flamed just a
couple of days ago for asking the same question. 
The answer is found at section 18.2, I believe, in the FAQ. Rhide by
default executes gcc filename and therefore looks only in
%DJDIR%\include for header files. And your c++ headers are in lang\cxx,
GCC won't look there, that's why it can't find it. The only way I know
(was advised) now is to, and somebody advise if better way exists, go to
command line and type "gxx filename" with preferred switches. Then
iostream.h and all c++ headers in lang\cxx will be looked up. Hope it
helped.
I am still figuring out my own way in RHIDE and DJGPP so my advice might
not be accurate.
