Missing Component??

Hi there,

This is probably going to be a very stupid quesion, but I'm sort of stuck. My company wants me to explore creating DLLs for FrameMaker using the FDK (FrameMaker Development Kit) and I'm afraid I'm only mildly experienced with C++. The first thing I wanted to do was check to make sure I have Visual C++ set up properly and that I could compile one of the really simple code samples (only a few lines long, so not much to go wrong there). When trying to compile, the compiler complains that it's missing header files like objbase, objidl, and objfwd. I have Visual C++ 6.0 Enterprise edition loaded with service pack 5 installed, which is listed at the required software for use with the FDK. Can someone be kind enough to tell me what component I'm missing? Thanks.
 
Hi again, can anyone point me in the right direction?

I'm trying to find out... are the missing header files mentioned above supposed to be included with standard loads of VC++, meaning that I didn't get a full install, or do I need to download another SDK or something to get them? It seems they are associated with COM. Thanks.
 
If there is a component what you're sure it exists, you should find this component and type in command line:
regsvr32 yourcomponent.xxx

where xxx is file extension, it can be .exe, .dll or .ocx
