Re: fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'mfc71.lib'

You are trying to link in a .lib file that was compiled under VS.NET 2003. It doesn't
matter how many files are in the project, it matters what libraries you are trying to link
in. You might also have an explicit path to a library file somewhere.

I have a project that was built with VS 2003. After doing the auto
conversion with VS 2005, I now get this error message when linking:

fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'mfc71.lib'

There is only one .cpp file in this project. There is no reference to
MFC71.lib in the project. Any ideas?
