    I'm trying to build a project on x64 configuration but gives some link error. This project builds fine on win32 configuration.It uses a library file namely htmlhelp.lib under the DDK path winxpddk\lib\w2k\i386\htmlhelp.lib. What should be the corresponding file for x64 configuration? Is there a difference in the file that is to be used for the x64 platform. The specific error that I'm getting is namely error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol HtmlHelpA referenced in function. I'm not sure where the definition of this fucntion should be for x64 platform given that it is working for win32 platform.

        Path you showed is not a 32 bit library path. Are you trying to build a driver or an applicaton. Depending on what you are trying to build, you will have to straighten up the build environment using the ddk or sdk. Vipin http://www.explorewindows.com/Blogs
