Sorry about that, this time I've pasted the errors into this message. This is
telling it to use boost_filesystem.lib in the runtime directory that bjam
creates. I rebuilt the entire thing. 
Is there another file I'm supposed to link to? I don't remember there ever being
a .dll file being built. If there is, I haven't found it yet. I'm pretty sure I
followed the bjam instructions really well. Also I'm just trying to use
boost::filesystem. That doesn't appear to make a dll. 
I've set up my MSVC project to use D:\mp3dber\boost-1.30.2 as an include
directory. That's where I extracted the source and built it using bjam.

Thanks,
David
