V++6 compiles OK but VS2005 gives errors

[Franky]

I have a cpp program that use to compile in C++6 but give a bunch of errors
in VS2005

I'm wondering if I need to reference to some library.

I'd appreciate any helpful suggestion

Even if it's just a suggestion of where to look or something that might
work.

--------------------------description------------------------------file--------
Error 20 error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __ftol2_sse
MainOn.obj

Error 27 error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol ___security_cookie
Files.obj

Error 39 error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __chkstk
Play.obj

Error 43 error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __gmtime64 referenced in
function _gmtime MainOn.obj

Error 13 error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _strstr
Bitmap.obj


Mostly, I don't know these symbols
For example I searched all files for chkstk without a hit. The same for
"security"


Thanks in advance for any help

It looks like you're linking VC2005 compiled code against the VC6 runtime
libraries. Check your Tools|Options|VC++ Directories for libraries and
include files and make sure that the VC6 paths are NOT present. Also check
the additional include and addition library path properties of your project
to make sure that the VC6 paths are NOT present.

Thanks for the reply.

If I copy the entire solution to another folder and the open it into VS and
deleted some of the stuff below, the original soultion will still be intact.
Is that correct? None of this stuff is global for all VS2005 is it?

I do not have VC6++ installed.

Below are a few things from the project property pages. Maybe you can
quickly see something that should not be there.


Thanks a lot

Make sure you delete all the files created by the VC6 compiler (*.obj,
*.sbr, etc) and recreate them with VC2005. The "Rebuild All" option usually
works well for this.

Thanks, I've got it resolved now.
