Hi Reggie White,

Well, I have include the *_ms.lib files through MSVC Project-
>Settings.

For gds32_ms.lib, I got this error:
Linking...
C:\FIREBIRD\LIB\gds32_ms.lib : fatal error LNK1106: invalid file or
disk full: cannot seek to 0x3c1ebb41
Error executing link.exe.

If I include ib_util_ms.lib, no compilation error on ib_util_ms.lib
but the original problem surfaces:
unresolved external symbol.

It seems that all the isc_* functions are in the gds32_ms.lib, isn't
it ?? Where can I get the "valid" gds32_ms.lib ?

Thanks for helping.
