All, I am attempting to build the Xerces com wrapper in VS 6.0. The installation instructions state that I need to install the MS Platform SDK (along with link to ftp and dowload sites). It appears to me that these instructions need to be updated. The FTP link is no longer functional as the directory no longer exists. I have installed all of the components off of the new site (automatically redirected by MS) at <http://www.microsoft.com/msdownload/platformsdk/sdkupdate/> but after installing everything on that site and adding the appropriate entry to my Path variable I cannot build the project. Specifically, I do NOT have a \include\at130 directory. I have searched everywhere to find the April 2001 platform SDK to install and I can't find it anywhere. When attempting to build I get the following error: Error scanning file C:\TempWORK\MSXML\XERCES\xerces-c-src1_7_0\src\com\Resource.h for dependencies. Creating Type Library...

I do not have an xmldom.idl file anywhere on my system. I am assuming that should have been installed from the correct Platform SDK installation. I would like to use Xerces with VB through the COM interface if at all possible. I have had experience with the Cocoon project and would like begin using Xerces. Any help would be appreciated.
