'Cannot open input file foo_tutorial1.lib'

n00b alert!  This is my first foray into VC++ ever, and my first windows programming in a long time.

Trying to get familiar with the component development tutorial, and I keep running into this error when trying to build the tutorial:

LINK : fatal error LNK1181: cannot open input file 'R:\_PROJECTS\Software\foobar development\foo_tutorial1-0.4-20080520-src\Release\foo_tutorial1.lib'


Any suggestions?  I haven't found any reference to that file anywhere, so I suspect this is an environment problem?

Sounds like indeed a environment problem.

Have you tried compiling the tutorial as-is?
