LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file "mfc42d.lib"

Hi,

I am trying to run a VC++ code and I am getting the following error:

LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file "mfc42d.lib"

I have located the file mfc42d.lib and also have included the path in the directory, but that doesnt help.

Can anyone help out

Thanks
