He shoots! He
scores!!!!!!!!!!!!
Laurent/Gilbert,
Thanks for the help. Making sure that
ethereal, wiretap and zlib were all using the same dll was the fix. Turns
out that ethereal was using msvcr71 and wiretap/zlib where requiring
msvcr71d. When I forced them all to msvcr71 everything worked
fine.
Again, thanks for your help and the intro
to windows application debugging. Now that I can build/package ethereal in
win32, I'm happily returning to Linux to continue my development.
Again, thanks for your help.
Regards,
Mike
