Yes - if either msvcr80.dll, libxml2.dll, or libiconv.dll cannot be found, I get a pop-up telling me so. > In that case there would be no need for your DLL to contain the manifest; > only the xml2 and iconv2 libraries themselves would have to embed it. Bingo - that's it !! Hidden away in the lib folder of this pre-compiled package I found a libxml2.dll.manifest, which I then embedded into the libxml2.dll using mt.exe - and 'nmake test' now succeeds, passing all tests. There was no manifest for the iconv dll, but apparently it doesn't need it. (Perhaps the manifest is already embedded in it.) Thanks again, Jan.
