More msobj80.dll problem

[Deleted_U_Intel]

Steve,

I did as you suggested and uninstalled my current visual fortran package, downloaded visual fortran 11.0, moved that file to the program files directory, and installed the most recent update. However, it again installed the visual studio into the documents folder, but now when I try to run my programs I get a linker error, "can't find rc.exe"

I am at my wits end on this. How do I fix this?

Well, that's not a msobj80.dll problem, is it? I am very puzzled that you are getting applications installed under Documents - there must be something very strange about the way you have configured your system.

I assume that you mean you are trying to build the program, not run it. Did you uninstall and reinstall Fortran after reinstalling Visual Studio?

Is this possibly an issue about not being an administrator of the local machine. In some of our locations, where managed desktops are in use, users have no access to Program Files, and so all user-installed applications end up in Documents and Settings/userid/Program Files or similar.

rc.exe should be in the Microsoft Visual Studio 8 VCBIN folder. Is it? In Visual Studio, select Tools > Options > Intel Fortran > Compilers. Click on the button for Executable Files and make sure that the list includes:

$(VCInstallDir)bin

Then Visual Studio is not installed. I understand Kevin Davis is helping you through Intel Premier Support, so please continue this with Kevin.
