STRUCT woes in Arduino C

I have what I believe to be a correct STRUCT construct but when I try and declare variables with it, Intellisense complains and my STRUCT vars are recognized.  Can anybody spot my error - code below
=Alan R.

Code
Select All
struct MenuItem {
	char name[16];
	int display;	// where 7-seg data for this menu item is held
	byte order;
	byte state;			// System State assgined to this menu is selected with RE switch
	byte ledpin;
};

MenuItem Count_menu;
MenuItem Speed_menu;
MenuItem Clear_menu;
MenuItem Step_menu;

***** The vars below are not being recognized, but the defines above are ****************
Count_menu.state = STATE_TDATA;

Count_menu.ledpin = MLED_COUNT;

Angle_menu.state = STATE_DDATA;

Where are you performing your assignments such as Count_menu.state = STATE_TDATA;?   In setup()?

Since you only posted the struct and some lines of code and not the actual code that is failing I was unable to make it fail.  If I make a define for STATE_TDATA and put the line Count_menu.state = STATE_TDATA; in setup() it works fine for me.

So for example the following code compiles and there are no intellisense errors:

Code
Select All
#define STATE_TDATA 42
#define MLED_COUNT   42
#define STATE_DDATA    42
struct MenuItem {
	char name[16];
	int display;	// where 7-seg data for this menu item is held
	byte order;
	byte state;			// System State assgined to this menu is selected with RE switch
	byte ledpin;
};

MenuItem Count_menu;
MenuItem Speed_menu;
MenuItem Clear_menu;
MenuItem Step_menu;

void setup() {
	Count_menu.state = STATE_TDATA;
	Count_menu.ledpin = MLED_COUNT;
}

void loop() {

}
