    We used to build our software with VC 6.0 and use rebase.exe to split the debug information off into a separate file (after adding debug information to the Release builds). Once we moved to VS 2005 and Vista, the same procedures stopped working. The Release build still have the options turned on to add debug information to executables; however, rebase.exe fails to find it. We need the .dbg files so that we can create crash reports, if the software ever fails on a remote system.

    cheers, -B
