Sorry, I didn't read your post carefully enough.

Try the following:

> In stdafx.h:
#include <boost/archive/binary_iarchive.hpp>
#include <boost/archive/binary_oarchive.hpp>
#include <boost/serialization/base_object.hpp>
 #include <boost/serialization/vector.hpp>

//In SomeClass.cpp:
#include "stdafx.h"
#include "SomeClass.h"
#include <boost/serialization/export.hpp>
BOOST_CLASS_EXPORT(CSomeClass)
