Compiler Errors

cannot execute MIDL engine As of the Windows 2000 release (MIDL version 5.03.279), the MIDL compiler is implemented using two executable files: Midl.exe (the driver), and Midlc.exe (the compiler engine). This error indicates the Midl.exe is unable to launch Midlc.exe. Make sure that Midlc.exe is in the same directory as Midl.exe, and that they are the same version. The error may have been caused by copying Midl.exe but not Midlx.exe from the latest distribution. Run midl and/or midlc at the command line without any parameters to see the version number of the executable.
