MFC71.dll issue - new twist

[folderann]

Running Vista Business 64. I have a small small MFC app that I wrote
in VC++ 2003. Any time I port it to a new XP install, I have to copy
various Microsoft DLLs to windows\System32 in order to get the
application to run. No worries - it runs.

After the Vista 64 install I got the usual error message and copied
the file to system32. After I continued to get the same "need mfc71"
message, I copied the file into the folder where the application
resides and the app ran correctly without the error.

Since I have a bunch of these apps, I wonder if I can work around this
problem without having to place the same files locally where the app
resides.

I tried to register the DLL but I got an error message - but I'm not
sure this would make any difference since the app ran with the dlls in
the local directory.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Folderann,

Install the .NET Framework 1.1:

..NET Framework 1.1 SP 1:

The MFC71 file is a Microsoft Foundation Class 7.1 C++ file. The 1.1 Framework
will install the runtime for it

I hope that answers your question
