Oren,

Thank you, I'm now able to compile both quickfix.lib and 
quickfix_net.dll  Unfortunately I'm not able to get much more info since 
I can't step into quickfix.lib.  The Call Stack lists this as the new 
hanging point:

   void stop( bool force )
   { QF_STACK_TRY
     m_pUnmanaged->stop( force );
     QF_STACK_CATCH
   }

Beyond this the call stack only lists this line "[Managed To Native 
Transition]", which I am unable to step into.

Tony
