MFCO42D.DLL trouble - Please help

J

John Barden

One of my programmers has created a ocx in C++ and he references the MFC
Debug library instead of the Retail version of MFC. Now it's not backward
compatable and if a client doesn't have the mfco42d.dll file on the system,
I can not legally distribute it. Is it difficult to change it to use the
MFC retail library? I'm not a C++ programmer but I am VB, so I can probably
work my way through it if I had some instructions.

Thanks,
John

This is probably OT, but anyways. Change the build settings. In VC++,
you will find settings for a debug build, and a Release build. The ocx
was probably compiled using the debug build. Compile and link using the
Release build. See VC help on how to change the build settings.
