Build error on ATI Stream examples, is this a bug?

Anybody know what the issue is? I downloaded the directX SDK, windows SDK and (obviously) ATI Stream SDK....

You mixed unicode and non-unicode definitions. LPCWSTR defined as wchar_t and it works woth SetWindowTextW. SetWindowTextA is ASCII function and it works with char. Check macro definitions for _UNICODE and the like. You have to switch on all that macros, including _UNICODE __UNICODE UNICODE and may be something else, or switch all them off.
