tutorial using ccs ver 5.1 trying to run in ccs ver 5.2 tried a miriad of changes keep geeting "internal C/C++ index error"

The overhead to learn msp430 compiler is extremely daunting especially when there are multitude ccs versions and manuals.(along with related bugs and idiosyncrasy for using software)Is there some clue as to what causes "internal C/C++ index error" Tutorial being used is www.ece.utep.edu/courses/web3376/lab1_ccs_tutorial.html it was set up for ccs ver 5.1 and I have updated to ccs ver 5.3.0.00090 . I have checked the text several times so I don't think what I pasted is wrong. I have the MSP430 Microcontroller Basic book by John H Davies but I seem to spending all the time trying to figure out the memory maps and cross referencing to the header files because all the info requires several sources to actually find out where something is actually located. I am sure for someone who is working with this everyday does not see this as an issue. This is a hobby and I would like to purchase a manual I can work through that doesn't have this learning overhead is there anything coming out which would be device specific?After one device is understood the other devices would be easier to work with.
