Did you set any options yourself?
Did you customized nmake.opt file?

As I understand, you can build GDAL with Visual C++ 2005 EE
but the problem is with using GDAL DLL.
Am I right?

But GDAL builds, right?
If it does, then your settings are OK.

Hmm, so does it mean the problem disappeared?
I mean, I don't know what kind of help you needs now :-)

Did you try to use GDAL with Eclipse on the same machine it was built
with Visual C++ 2005 EE?
If you are getting error about missing DLL library,
then you need to check if:
1. library that is mentioned in the error message is available in the system
2. and it is available in the execution PATH, usually it mean:
- dll has to be installed to C:\Windows or C:\Windows\system
- OR the directory in which you have the missing DLL has to be added
to the PATH environment variable

Please, tell me if you need any further help, because now I'm not sure
if the problem is still present.
What kind of help do you need?

Cheers
