Page 248   Error Message C2177

Add the following note to error C2177:

This error may occur when you attempt to assign to an unsigned long
integer a decimal constant in the range +2147483647 to +4294967295.

For example, the following line generates an error:

   unsigned long debt = 3000000000;

but either of these lines works:

   unsigned long debt = 2000000000 + 1000000000;
   unsigned long debt = 0xB2D05E00;
