Okay. Well, I'm sure that we're set for Win32. Anything else you can think of that would cause it to work in Windows 7 but not XP and Server 2003? I realize now that the MSVCR80, etc. are runtime libraries. Those shouldn't be causing us any issues.

You may need to distribute the runtime with the dll, to make sure it's on the target machines.Originally Posted by mathguy
(Which is why I gave up on MS compilers long ago... you gotta give out this, include that, share something else... what a pain!)
>> we still have MSVCR80.DLL
That's the non-debug version (no 'D' at the end), which is good, but you'll have to apply the VC++ Redistributable Package to the target machine to ensure MSVCR80.DLL is in place.
The alternative is to link with the CRT statically. From the menu:
Project -> Properties
select Configuration: "Release"
select Configuration Properties \ C/C++ \ Code Generation
set "Runtime Library" to "Multi-threaded (/MT)"
After that, depends.exe should no longer show MSVCR80.DLL as a dependency.
If the above doesn't help, we'll need a better description than "it fails".

I have been meaning to get back. I've got it solved and working. It wouldn't have happened without all of your help. Thank you! I truly appreciate the time you all took responding to my questions.
