Thanks, that was it. I ran setenv.bat, but for some odd reason it has the lib.exe (and some other files) under bin/win64, and they're only added to the path if I run it as "setenv /XP64". I dunno what makes lib.exe 64 bit specific. I think I copied this files up one level on my other system and forgot to do that on this one. Thanks. Dan
