Adding the SQLServerInitialize function creates compile Error

Once I added the function in the InstallShield Script UI I now get the following error:
Compiling...
Setup.Rul

The help topic "Using the SQL Run-Time Functions in InstallScript and InstallScript MSI Projects" mentions some steps you'll need to handle in order to use SQLRTInitialize2 and so forth, so as a first step you might verify that you've taken care of those.

If that doesn't fix it, could you post more of the code you're using?
