linking error

Env: MFC Dialog based Application
Files: MainDlg.cpp, MainDlg.h, Dialog1.cpp, Dialog1.h, Dialog2.cpp, Dialog2.h, etc.

I have following linking error when compile. Compilation is OK but linking is having problem. What would be the reason and how to fix it? Please see attached MainDlg.txt (MainDlg.cpp, MainDlg.h) and Dialog1.txt (Dialog1.cpp, Dialog1.h)

Dialog2.cpp also has the similar structure of Dialog1, but use Convert2DWord.

Please advise.

For the project setting, one fo the entries is:

Win32 Release:
/nodefaultlib:"LIBC"

Win32 Debug:
/nodefaultlib:"MSVCRT"

Yes, but still do not know the rootcause.

void Convert2String (NEW_STRUCT *myNum, char *myString)
{
....
}

void Convert2Dword ( char *myString, INT32 * myDword)
{
....
}

this in mainDlg.cpp should be like this:

void CMainDlg::Convert2String (NEW_STRUCT *myNum, char *myString)
{
....
}

void CMainDlg::Convert2Dword ( char *myString, INT32 * myDword)
{
....
}

If I have the function(s) in the MainDlg.cpp

static int something(...)

I can't change to static int CMainDlg::something(), it said:
error C2724: 'something' : 'static' should not be used on member functions defined at file scope.

How to fix that if I still want to use static int ?
