Hi Awadhoot, It is important that you look at the steps involved in the xerces build – they do matter. For instance (in xerces): 8) C++ -> Language -> Treat w_char as Built in type = NO Xalan and xerces MUST have the same settings here. Also: 12) My Computer->Properties->Advanced->Environement Variables XERCESCROOT:C:\dev\xerces-c-src_2_7_0 MUST be defined. The Localisation make file requires this path setting to be defined. Also: You error, LINK : fatal error LNK1181: cannot open input file 'xerces-c_2.lib' Tells me that your library path settings cannot be correct. And: In my step by step I refer to replacing all ‘VC7.1’ strings with ‘VC8’. If you skipped the xerces build steps, the VC7.1 to VC8 replacement will not work. Finally: The localization project must be built successfully before xalan can be compiled. I guess this is obvious. Please try again and let me know how it goes. If all else fails try going through the xerces build steps, and really following the steps carefully. Btw: I compiled xerces / xalan with the VC++ 2005 express edition (not the Team Edition). I do not believe there should be that much difference though. I could be wrong. Hans
