I received another reply on this, but it still doesn't completely fix the error

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1876444/boost-unit-testing-and-visual-studio-2005-visual-c-and-the-boostautotestsuit

I didn't know this but you have to have #include "stdafx.h" as the
first line in the file.

Now I'm getting another error however...

1>Linking...
1>LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file
'libboost_unit_test_framework-vc80-mt-gd-1_40.lib'

I really don't understand the error however because I have the
aforementioned file in my C:\Program Files (x86)\boost\boost_1_40\lib
directory (unless this warrants including it in the build somehow
(...I have a java background...I'm a bit new to professional C++ that
uses libraries...)

Thanks,
   Andrew
