Missing LIB in VC++ 6?

Hi Everyone Since I can''t seem to find a better place to ask, I''m gonna have to post it here! I''ve run into a snag with a VC++ application I''m compiling on my version of VC++ 6.0. This is the error: LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file "nafxcw.lib" I''ve searched high and low for this silly lib file, and I can''t find it! Now the strange thing is that it referenced in a standard header file (in this case, Afx.h) but I can''t find it on the MSDN disks, the original VC++ install disk, or on the Microsoft site. Any idears? Should I reinstall or something? I''ve tried doing a ''/nodefaultlib:"nafxcw.lib"'' which works fine, except the rest of the code doesn''t like that not being there, so it beats me over the head with quiet a few errors. Any ideas why this is missing, and/or where I can get it? I''m mainly concerned that I will keep running into this problem as I try to develop apps and have to keep finding these missing files..

If it is indeed a file that is supposed to be there, then you could always look on the VC++ CDs for it... Or reinstall if worse comes to worse...

And by the way, it is indeed in the MFC/Lib directory on my installation...
