Hi again Dann,
I am sorry I missed this. So there is no build project for mpirxx.lib
when you open the mpir.sln file in Visual Studio?
The C++ library mpirxx.lib should be in the same directory as mpir.lib
itself. Have you check if it is there?

It should build into the same output directory as mpir.lib.
