msvcirt.lib and iostreams.h

  These files will not work with VC 2005. At least there is no guarantee that they will work and a high likelyhood that this will break in many subtle and not so subtle ways.
  
  Wheteher it is your project or not, if you are assigned the job of fixing it, there is only one real way to go.

  Gentleman and Ladies from the C++ compiler team. 
  
  I understand that you don't like developers using 

  deprecated libraries and headers, but I am dealing with
  code from a 3rd party organization, and I am simply trying
  to compile and link the code.
  
  I am not authorized to make the changes you suggest, so
  is there a work around, other than trying to acquire a
  copy of Visual Study 2003  
  
  I am not criticizing your comments, but I am just not in a position to respond to your legitimate concern.

  No, the last version to ship those wasn't 2003, it was 2002.

  Unfortunately, it's not my project, and the suggested work
  around is to find copies of msvcirt.lib and iostreams.h as released with Visual Studio 2002.
  
  Is there a source for these files

  These files have been removed from the product.
  
  You should convert the project to use <iostream> and msvcprt.lib.

  The last product that shipped these files was Visual Studio 2003.
