Whenever I try to compile a VC++ program using VS .NET 2003 I get an
error saying mspdb71.dll not found. How can I fix this error? PS. I ran vsvars32.bat and it did not change a thing. Thanks,
Thank you for the suggestion, unfortunately I already tried reinstalling
VS .NET. This is one bizarre problem. I really REALLY do not want to wipe the system. Thanks, Nick Z. [quoted text, click to view] Carl Daniel [VC++ MVP] wrote:

vsvars32.bat
Ran both, didn't work.
As far as I know the environmental variables are set successfully by these two. Thanks, Nick Z. [quoted text, click to view] Takeshi SHIGIHARA wrote:

I should note that copying all contents of
....\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Common7\IDE to ....\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Vc7\bin "solves" the problem, I am able to compile etc. However, this approach is not really elegant and might be causing another problem just waiting to happen.

Nick,
You may have tried this as well, but you could try totally uninstalling the program, deleting the left over folder, then reinstall from scratch. Could be something in memory was keeping something from installing or something like that (although I've never had a bad install so this is mostly speculation).

I set the variable to ...\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Common7\IDE
typing the following in command prompt: set path=C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Common7\IDE Next I run VS .NET and the problem is still there. Now here is something strange. After I restart the system I check the environmental variables by typing "set[enter]" in the command prompt and I see that the path variable is C:\Windows\system32. So my guess is something is wrong with how environmental variables are treated on my system? Also, do I need to restart the computer for the setting of variables to take effect. Thanks, Nick Z.

That would mean that - ...\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Common7\IDE
is not in your "path" environment variable. Willy.

Not sure why you mentioned vsvars32.bat, the environment set-up by this
batch file isn't used by VS.NET, you'll have to check your Executable files settings in VS itself (Select Tools/Options and go to Projects and Solutions - VC++ Directories - Executable files) .

Wow. I feel very stupid now (and I should).
I cannot believe I missed that whole settings page. I added ...\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Common7\IDE and of course everything works now. Still don't know how it got deleted, but thats another question. As for vsvars32.bat, I googled, and apparently that solved it for people who were having the same problem. Weird.
