Hi All,

I'm attempting to build a .lib from a C code .cpp file.  Code has run OK before under VS6

The .lib is to be linked to a FORTRAN project

I'm totally unfamiliar with C projects and get a compile failure message as below.

Can anyone explain this to me please

Thanks, Gordon

Seems like the compiler could not find RayOpt.pchi.
