afxwin1.inl(1034): error C4430

Well i decide to learn some C/C++ since i heard about the Express Edition. Im running into some strange error(im not a programmer, im a 3DCG artist).

heres my code:

#include <afxwin.h>

struct CFrameTest : public CFrameWnd
{
    CFrameTest()
    {
        Create(NULL, "Windows Application Tester",
               WS_POPUPWINDOW | WS_CAPTION,
               CRect(400, 280, 580, 520), NULL, NULL,
               WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW);
    }
};

struct CAppTest : public CWinApp
{
    BOOL InitInstance()
    {
        CFrameTest *Tester = new CFrameTest();
        m_pMainWnd = Tester;
        Tester->ShowWindow(SW_NORMAL);

        return TRUE;
    }
};

CAppTest theApp;

heres my error:

1>D:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\PlatformSDK\include\mfc\afxwin1.inl(1034) : error C4430: missing type specifier - int assumed. Note: C++ does not support

i get this error twice, the first on line 1034 than 1036. And yes im a total noob to programming..

line 1034 of afxwin1.inl:

{ return ((HMENU) menu) == m_hMenu; }

line 1036 of afxwin1.inl:

{ return ((HMENU) menu) != m_hMenu; }

Even though i download the MS PlatformSDK, which contain the MFC library and header files, i still cant do any MFC programming thats what i did, and i set a path for them also in MSVC++ EXpress Edition also..
Mike @ DanRic

This code is MFC code. The VS C++ Express Version does not contain headers and libraries to program MFC or ATL!

You need at least VS 2005 Standard!

This operation is not defined Return type!!

afxwin1.inl

_AFXWIN_INLINE CMenu::operator==(const CMenu& menu) const
    { return ((HMENU) menu) == m_hMenu; }
_AFXWIN_INLINE CMenu::operator!=(const CMenu& menu) const
    { return ((HMENU) menu) != m_hMenu; }

change to

_AFXWIN_INLINE BOOL CMenu::operator==(const CMenu& menu) const
    { return ((HMENU) menu) == m_hMenu; }
_AFXWIN_INLINE BOOL CMenu::operator!=(const CMenu& menu) const
    { return ((HMENU) menu) != m_hMenu; }
