mspdb80.dll was not found !

Question:

When I tried to run cl.exe from the command line, the error message I get is "Application unable to start, mspdb80.dll was not found".

Can somebody help me with this?

Thanks,

Answer:

Hi there,

You most likely already figured this out, but environment variables can be set by right-clicking on "my computer", then choose "properies". Select the "advanced" tab and at the bottom there will be a button for "environment variables". You will see these are divided up into "user variables" and "system variables", and in the list one should be "PATH". If you highlight that one and click edit, then you can add

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\IDE;

Don't forget the semi-colon at the end if you put it first, or you can scroll through all the others and insert it at the end.

That should fix the problem.
