Hi, I have received a source code from client which needs to be build using VS 6.0. I have been able to successfully compile the code but get the following link time error: Creating library ..\lib\CSRMFC.LIB and object ..\lib\CSRMFC.exp unicows.lib(failure.obj) : fatal error LNK1103: debugging information corrupt; recompile module NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'link' : return code '0x44f' I have the following softwares installed: Visual studio 6 service pack 6. Microsoft Platform SDK February 2003 edition. (Build 5.2.3790.0) Microsoft Data Access Components (Version 2.7) Windows Installer SDK (Version 2.0) Any help on this would be appreciated. Regards, Ganesh

Time for a newer FAQ about this issue: in this cab file you will find a unicows.lib that works with VC 6.0 http://download.microsoft.com/download/platformsdk/sdk/update/win98mexp/en-us/3718.1/CoreSDK-common.2.1.cab this cab file comes with the October 2002 SDK and luckily, still happens to be on the Microsoft servers. just open up the cab and rename the file that has the word unicows in it to unicows.lib Ted.
