[SOLVED] Including a header file causes a lot of errors

When I #include a file, I get errors that occur on any line pointing to another class. Like these (there's actually 12 of them..):

x:\development\inkpuppet\newdialog.h:20: error: C2143: syntax error : missing ';' before '*'

x:\development\inkpuppet\newdialog.h:20: error: C4430: missing type specifier - int assumed. Note: C++ does not support default-int

It occurs when I write InkPuppet *pointerToPuppet;.

The include I can't put in the header is inkspot.h in the inkpuppet.h header.

For each pointer I get the two above errors x3, then I get errors because obviously the pointers no longer work.

I do not know which parts of my code will be relevant.
