Hi,
I did a serach on MSVC7 and found this message:

Is that of any help ?

That looks significant. I suspect that some or all of the dependency
binaries were compiled with a different version of MSVC - probably 6.




Running the MS Dependency Walker tool (depends.exe) on the dll's will show
you which dlls they are linked with.


I did that.
Everything I compiled with VC7 depends on version 7 dlls. Either MSVCRT70.DLL or MSVCR70D.DLL.
All the prereq Win32 binaries from ethereal.org use MSVCRT.DLL which I understand is the version 6 dll.
This is supposed to be a big no-no, and why a bit later in my mail I was asking where to find the Windowsified sources used to build the binaries.
