MS Visual Studio cannot find path

[postaquestion]

When I open cmd I get the message:

Setting environment for using Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 x86 tools
The system cannot find the path specified

What should I do? I have downloaded the tools. Any help would be appreciated.

What is the content of the compiler's IA32BINifortvars.bat file? You say "you have downloaded the tools" - what version of VS2005 do you have and what version of the compiler?

Hi,

I have the same problem. I have installed the VS2005 Express edition and the version of the intel compiler is the 10.0.025. Here is the contentofmy ifortvars.bat file

@echo off
Rem Intel Visual Fortran Compiler Build Environment for 32-bit applications

echo.
echo Intel Fortran Compiler for applications running on IA-32, Version 10.0.025

Mal, I would expect that your case should work. Please post the full output of starting the command prompt window. Does C:Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 8VCBinVcvars32.bat exist?

[mal2]

Yes, the Vcvars32.bat exists. here it is the file:

"%VS80COMNTOOLS%vsvars32.bat"

I've seen this before, but I can't remember what the solution is. First, please download and install the current 10.0.027 and see if the problem remains. Uninstall 10.0.025 before doing that. If the problem is still there, report it to Intel Premier Support and we'll figure it out.
