Wow, how clever!!  I removed the explicit linking and added the search path
to both Debug and Release configs (in my case, the path is
'E:\boost_1_40\lib' for all libraries).  The Release build still builds and
runs fine.  But when I try to launch the Debug build I get a dialog box with
this message:-

" Unable to start program 'F:\MSVCtest_app\debug\MSVCtest_app.exe'
This application has failed to start because the application configuration
is incorrect. Review the manifest file for possible errors. Reinstalling the
application may fix this problem. "

FWIW I only seem to have these two (boost_regex) DLLs:-

boost_regex-vc80-mt-1_40.dll
     and
boost_regex-vc80-mt-gd-1_40.dll

but my app's manifest file (for the Debug version) specifies
"Microsoft.VC80.DebugCRT".  Is one of those DLL's a CRT-debug DLL or
am I missing something?

Thanks,

John
