<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Hi,</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I'm trying to compile GDAL using the provided makefile.vc files, and I get the same error right at the beginning. In doing some google searches I found some posts in the GDAL archive from some chap that had the same problem a couple years ago….that chap turned out to be me! However, back then I did resolve the issue somehow, but it wasn't resolved with any list help so there's no record of what I did. This is a different computer, and the newest version of Visual Studio so the fact that I'm the only one to ever have this problem I find rather surprising. Anyway any suggestions to help me remember what I did? </FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Much thanks! Here's the error:</FONT>
