Re: Why can't it find odbc32.lib? It's there.

Thanks, Alex.

I made sure the Lib and Include directories in the Platform SDK were
set in the IDE as you suggest under Tools | Options, and the command
line msbuild finds those libraries now.

Now here's the kicker: If my directory is named "VC\Platform SDK" the
system environment variables set for "VC" won't find it. However, if I
remove the space and name it "PlatformSDK" the contents will be located
by the program. Obscure.

Now the command line build is complaining about not finding
adbccp32.lib, which is not anywhere on my hard drive, so I don't think
that's a path problem. I'll have to do some searching to see if anyone
else has come across this. Any ideas?

Thank you,
JeanneP
